To my Comrades

who, like myself, were so

unfortunate as to have suffered the

horrors of a living death in the Prison Pens of the

South, and who, through all their hardships, privations, and

sufferings, remained loyal to our FLAG, and to my beloved Wife,

who suffered untold tortures of mind begotten by anxiety

on account of the uncertainty of my fate, for

fifteen long, weary, months,——this

work is dedicated in

F. C. & L.

by

THE AUTHOR.
