DAYS ON PICKET LINE
Captain Relates Some Interesting In
cidents While in Front of
Petersburg.

Some time about the middle of Feb
ruary, 1865, was detailed as officer of
the picket for duty on the line in our
front, extending from the Weldon rail-
road, not far from the Yellow tavern
on our right, to where we joined the
First brigades pickets of our division
On the left. My detail, as 1 now re-
member, was about 65 men, some from
perhaps every regiment of our brig
ade, writes G. M. heidelberg, captain
Company G, Sixth Maryland, in Ma
tional Tribune. When we arrived at
the reserve picket post was met by
a captain of the One Hundred and
Tenth Ohio, who had his reserve in
line to receive us, when he gave me
the number of men on duty. MY first
relief was soon detailed, and in charge
Of sergeant, accompanied by a ser
geant who was to direct the new pick
cts to their posts and take charge of
the old picket. The captain proceeded
to give me the orders to the officer of
the picket. He told me of the placing
of videts at night, and the persistent
custom of the Johnny pickets of trad
Ing with the boys; and you boys who
ever did picket duty along the front
of our corps will remember how very
close our picket lines were about that
time. The captain insisted the prac-
tice OF trading should be broken up,
but in my mind l right there secretly
decided I would have some rebel
news that night, if Johnny asked
certain videt whom had in mind for
trade. l therefore selected from
my old company d, Sixth Maryland,
one John Travers, whom knew was
equal to any emergency that might
arise, and had him detailed on first
relief on videt, with instructions to
trade anything the Johnnies proposed.
Sergt. Joe. Eyler, also of Company d,
Sixth Maryland. was sergeant of the
first relief picket, and posted him to
answer promptly any call from any of
the videts, but to positively disallow
any trading or any communication
from any of the videts. Travers, Of
course, excepted. There were several
calls to the first relief videts from
the rebel pickets, but all efforts to
communicate for trade except from
Travers's post was sternly refused.
John answered his man and allowed
him to approach. His proposition was
to trade tobacco for coffee, salt or SOW
belly. John agreed, provided he
brought him Richmond paper of that
days date. Sergt. Eyler took coffee
and salt, and returned later with a
fine lot of chewing and smoking to-
bacco, and copy of the Richmond
Wing. We had some interesting read
ing the next day
should also state that in the in
structions given me, was told that
every evening, before night, the reb-
els would call to us, saying: "Yanks,
are you ready to chop wood?" That no
arrangement had been entered into
for detail from each picket to meet
