Thomas Boyle, Third Wisconsin,, OF

of sugar. Blanke brought up a cupful
of the sweet stuff. and we divided with
some of the comrades.
The smell and flavor of the sugar

and getting dark. The prisoners on
the upper floor crowded down upon us.

their quarters. told them to send
two men from each mess, and all
would get some sugar. Order was o
restored. The boys formed IN line,

went into the basement and worked
like beavers hosting sugar. and the

and prevented much scurvy. A hole
was cut through a plank door about the
middle of the building. We opened
up communication with them. and
traded sugar for salt. When night
came again we sent down a force to
hoist up the sweet stuff to replenish
our supply, quietly. The prisoners on
the other side were getting uneasy.
They decided to get at the sugar. The
third night u force was busy hoist
ing sugar when the prisoners from the
other side got through There was
much confusion and racket. I called

we had tobacco presses and everything
else filled with sugar.

The alarm was given, guards charged
