same.
We fixed half a canteen, by punch
ing holes in it. for a sieve and sifted
the meal, and then we parched the
bran and made our Rio coffee out of
that We put all our meal together,
and made one pone Of cornbread for
six or seven men: then one man cut it
into that many pieces as nearly equal
as possible. The beef was divided the
same way If the rebels ever had any
hog meat we never got any. Their rig
for hauling our rations to camp was
very primitive, indeed. 1t consisted of
four small, poor mules. Their harness
was made of shuck collars. rope bri-
dies, rawhide tugs. with an old piece
of canvas for a backband. When it
rained and the tugs got wet they would
stretch to a great length. Some of the
boys in camp told the joke that the
negro driver came driving into camp
one day to bring our rations and when
he got inside the gate he looked around

One of the Excluded.

Editor National Tribune: am one
Of those widows who is unjustly de-
barred from a pension. My husband
served his country nearly three years,
was wounded, drew pension and never
was well after his return from the war.
The widows who married soldiers after
1890 are the wives who cared for the
veterans in their last days. 1t was Lin
coins plan to provide for the veterans
and their widows. and it seems to me
our Government makes an unjust dis
elimination ! am very glad the ma
jority OF widows have this increase; it
is little enough. l am sure 1 voice the
sentiment of all these unjustly debarred
widows in expressing their gratitude to
the loyal National Tribune.-H. +.

Was He IOyai?

Editor National Tribune: In an arti-
Gle on the Mine Run campaign was an
account OF the execution of spy After
reading 1t came to the conclusion that
now know what became OF a man
whose fate I have been anxious to
learn. In November, 1853, while our
(First) corps lay along the O.. & A.
r. r., a suspicious-looking character
came in to our Third Division head
quarters one morning He said he was
a rebel scout. had deserted, and came
over 20 inform us that the rebels had
Information that trainload Of horses
was coming 20 our army and tnar they
intended making q raid to capture
them, all of which was true. The scout
was handed over to the provost guards.
The same dav we moved headquarters
several miles farther south, and he was
marched along under guard. After we
had stopped at our new camp he asked
to be taken to corps headquarters
which was, done. Gen. Newton came
out of his tent, and invited him inside,
telling the guards they could go and he
would take charge OF MIN.
The truth OF the matter is he was one
of our own spies. The General asked
him why he did not make himself
known. He said he did not know how
he stood. Some time after that he
came to our Third Division headquar-
ters, and took several of the staff Off
gers dilu Out anu
rounded up several bushwhackers.
While eneamped at Rappahannock Sta
ton ne came in one evening, and one
of the staff officers brought him to my
tent, and told me to give him supper
and lodging for the night That night
the spy and L slept under the same
blanket. After breakfast next morning
ne mounted his horse, crossed the Rap
pahapnock, and 1 never saw or heard
Of him again.
The night he spent in my tent he
told me he had formerly been in the
army, scouting around Morgan's COM
mand. but became too well known and
mad to leave; said it was dangerous
business, and that he expected he would
| be caught: that at times when within
the rebel lines an officer would step up
and unbutton his blue overcoat, and
when he saw the Confederate cavalry
jacket would walk away. That is the
way he was dressed when I saw him.
If he is the man whom the Lieuten-
ant-Colonel of the 22d Mass, on dis
covering that he had on a Confederate
jacket, shot down like dog, he COM
nitted murder. / know very we'll from
the few times I met him that he did
not wish everyone to know his busi-
ness. The last time saw him was just
about the time the army started for
Mine Run, and l now fully believe that
he was the man.-Charles A. Frey, Ser
geant, Co. d, 150th Pa, Montandon, Pa.

stand up, my knee was so stiff. A rebel
Surgeon looked at 1t, and said he could
do nothing for me and l would always
be lame. I tried to help myself. and
sewed the skin of my kneecap where
was wounded over the bone as we'll
as I could. That was on Monday. The
rebels took our blankets and every
thing we had to cover us, and that
night it rained. Gen. Stoneman had
burned all the bridges on the wagon
roads, SO we had to ford the streams
and march to Richmond, which took
us four days.
ION Saturday, May 9, having eaten
up all the flour and water paste they
gave us. we stopped at the city limits.
The streets were crowded with rebels,
who jeered at us. They threw rotten
vegetables at us until the Colonel
stopped it. We passed in review be-
fore President Davis and his Cabinet,
and were taken to Castle Thunder.
Sunday we heard the bells tolling.
The rebels told us that it was for Stone

Editor National Tribune: AS 1 have
never seen anything in The National
Tribune about Camp Ford rebel prison,
1 thought little history of this prison
might be interesting.
Camn Ford. Tex. has been almost
entirely ignored because it was not so
large as Andersonville and others; but
1 want to say that the rebels Kept
boarding house CD there during the
years of 1S64-65. / think the place
was picked out and the pen started IN
the latter part of 1863, but the stockade
proper was made in the Spring of 1864.
There were six acres in the inclosure.
The camp was laid out on the south
