UNION PO - INON - ERS - AT RiC/1-110N-D
How They are Sterved to Death—Hot,
rlble Life In Libby Prison—lnterest.
low and 'linglllus. Narrative.
Rev. George H. Hammer, Chaplin of
the Twelfth Pennsylvania Cavalry, who
was recently released from Libby Prison,
furnishes the Philadelphia Inquirer a long
account of his captivity and of the suffer.
iugs of our soldiers, who fall into the rebel
dutch. In referencia , to their condition
and treatment in Libby Prison, he says :
The Morning. Toilet in Libby,
At last the day dawns, and opening his
eyes to scenes surrounding, he beholds
about two hundred officers diligently en
gaged, intent upon some works which
seems to be a matter of life and death.
Does he ask the import, not yet taking in
his mind the'reality ; he is facetiously an
swered "morning devotions," or by
another "skirmish drill," Doubtful yea,
as to what it all means, he Sees his corn
panien at his elbow removing the various
„r tic ia il o f his apparel and passing them
through a strict settniny, ever and anon
giving emphasis to the earnest movements:
of his hands. Very timidly, and with a
shocked modesty, he steals a glance at
himself, and oh. horror of horrors, just
under his eye he beholds something not
like one of Pharaoh's lean kind, bat a
something, a moving mass, somewhat
gray in appearanc e and aldermanic
in
proportions, which startles him, until I
gathering courage a friendly boot ralries
to the rescue.
A Breakfast of Hash, and Rash Only
Preparations a renow making for breaks_
fast. Will it be a good one? What ta•
very mess will await his consumption ?
He steals a glance at the table where others,:
are devouring t heir portico. Hash l poor,
dirty looking hash! The men loved hash
at home, but still his heart softens towards
it. Hastening to perform his MurLing
ablutions, hie eyes are aunin greeted with
nnt,leasant sights, his ricetr,ls penetrated
with scents unknown to French perfum-'
ere, everything nauseating and disgusting.
With an appetite sharpened by long lasting,
he surrnui,cls the table, but hardly enters
the combat until he learns that he must
spare his rations or he wilt have nothing
for dinner and supper. Thus warned, he
desists, still hungry, and, indeed, the more
eager from having aroused a slumbering
nature. He is hungry ; o , hers are hun
gry ; they all are hungry—have been for
days and weeks.
Dinner and Sapper Scanty.
The morning is spent, he knows not
how, and after much buatlingaud activity.
and some swearing he hears a lusty cry,
"small messes fur soup."
What does that meati? Simply a dis
tribution of sot,p made. to ooe of the ;arge
kettles steaming upon the stove. Is he
fortunate enough to obtain a tin cup, he
stands with others and gets his allowance
of a little rice and considerable water, with
now and then a small fragment of meat
floating round in search of company. With
hia bread he again, attempts to make a
Liat with th e sans. 12.--6=r
still. Supper arrives, and as the meat
boiled at noon must go for the morning's
hash, he must fast, having doubtless con
sumed the last morsel of bread for dinner.
Tus on, day after day, no relief, no
change, except the ephemeral excitement
caused by the thousand and one idle ru
mors that float round without parentage
or history. Do you thick that I am giv
ing a fancy sketch, and drawing upon my
imagination for facts ? I eau assure you
it is all too tree.
Union Prisoners starved to Death.
Many sank under it, and, falling away
into living skeletons, were passed over to
the hospital, in the other end of the build
ing where they lived or died as circum
stances might decide. How often have I
seen this ; so often that it had long since
ceased to call forth special attention. Did
men fall down exhausted upon the floor,
those stronger picked them up and strove
to have them removed to the hospital.
Did they die, their bodies were oareletasly
put to one side until convenience suited
them to hurry them underground. During
this time the heat was intense, and the
suffering from this cause alone was very
great. Add to this the fact that from diet
and other causes the prisoners suffered
greatly from dysentery, aggravated by the
disagreeable water we were obliged to
drink, and I know not, indeed, how we
passed the summer, or bore tip under the
accumulated woes of our situa. nn
The A Mount of Food Allowed to Prix.
otters.
Do you ask me as to the amount of
ood reoei,‘ed daily by each officer?
question is easily answered. One-fourth
pound of very tough raw beef and bones,
very little over ten ounces of bread, very
heavy and sour, a little rice and it2fintes
imal quantities of salt and vinegar. This
was the amount of rations received,
though I will do the authorities the justice
to say that it was hardly the amount al
lowed, the remaining part being appropri•
ated by officials. However small the
appetite of the prisoner, if well he could
eat the whole of his day's rations at one
meal and look around for more. At the
time of which I speak the officers were
not allowed to purchase or receive any
food but that furnished by the authorities
as the daily ration. The bread was very
unpalatable and unwholesome; the beef
oftentimes tainted, and sometimv evi
dently diseased, as we could see where
tumors had been extracted, If in lieu of
rice we obtained beans or peas, we receiv
ed with them no small quantity of ani
mated li`e. in the form of worms, fat and
plump.
The Interior of the Libby Prison.
Fancy a room 102 feet lung and 40 feet
wide, occupied by 160 officers as sitting
room, dining room. bed room, ke , all in
one; and than this room, in addition, con
tained two tables, reaching across the
room ; and in r,ne corner was boarded off
a room 16 by 15, as o cook room, and one
corner of this again boarded off, and eon.
taining the hydraw, wash troughs, sinks,;
Lo. With insufficient drainage, and lim
ited
means of cleansing the impurities
which must of necessity accumulate, the
floor quite nasty, much of the time sub
Jeot to the leakage of the floor above; all I
this, too, but a step from the cook stoves,
and all in the same room, can it be won
dared that -we suffered from noxious va
pore, or were disgusted with nauseating
thetts and smells? This cook room con
tained three old' stoves, with furniture
enough to moderately supply one, andet
designed to supply the wants of about 400
containingimmediately above us holding Colonel
ght's command and others.
The kettles were in constaa in' t employ
day and night ; not iniPlOyed itoOk•
leg our food, they were used for washilli
dirty clot or boiling to death the
min that) that) •ed them, and. indeed, so,e.
times for .gibing feet. The eating of
these four hundred officers was done upon
the two tables in the room, which neces
eerily required their presenc e a good deal
of the time in this prolifle room. The
supply of tin cups, plates, knives and
forks were about sufficient for one hun•
dred men, and many were the scenes of
wrangling and disorder caused to be the
lucky possessor of these useful artiolee.
Woo to the man who was last in the race;
fingers MUst then do the work. The con
dition of the recital can well be imagined
—filthy in the extreme. The floor, the
cracks in the post and doors and the win
dow openings, as well as the crevices be
tween the bricks, were all filled with ver
min, many of them visible.
Inbuman Treatment of our Men.
The treatment received by the officers
during this trying time was bad and only
bad continually. One seemed to vie with
the others in their endeavors to annoy ns
and make our situation intolerable. Did
one under this delieerating process stretch
himself upon the floor daring the day
upon his blanket, unless he had firet ob•
tamped the consent of the prison inspector
to spread his blanket, and he was never
present when wanted, he was rudely
aroused, his blanket taken from him and
carried down stairs to be given to some
needy rebel or placed under the saddle for
on •of these ruffians to ride upon. If by
any means we offeuded his supreme high•
ness, the commandant, our supply of
water was cut off for half a day and night.
and this during the suffocating weather of
summer : or to vary the punishment and
add zest to the regiment, we would be
left without wood for three fourths of a
#ay wherewith to cook our fond, but then
lee saved our rations and had more the
next day.
Officers Confined in Dungeons,
have seen a Captain of cavalry, for
ehe simple offense of missing the spittoon
and spitting upon the floor, thrown into a
dark damp dungeon for two days and
nights, on bread and water, causing a se
rious inflammation of the lungs. At this
time it was required that the officers alion!d
perform the most menial services connect
' ed with cooking, washing, scrubbing, and
the cleanliness of the room. Lieut. We'ch,
of the Eighty Seventh Pennsylvania
try, lay for six weeks in a dungeon nndsr
he blinding, because, as an Orderly Ser.
fgeant, acting under appointment as a
Lkutenant, though not yet mustered in,
'and of course not recognized as such., he
had rightly classed himself with the en—
listed in h. When brought up among the
other officers his clothes, shoes, etc., were
covered with green mould. Lieutenant
Dutton, of the Sixty-Seventh Pennsylva•
ma Infantry, has been doomed to a dun
geon until the close of the war, and is now
suffering therein for a similar offense, with
the additicnal fact,that he assumed the
name of another. Captain Litchfield (r
am not certain of the name) of the Sixty
Seventh Peunsylvauia,Twas confined in a
durgeon for five or eight days on bread and
water for forming a plan of escape which ,
was frustrated.
Col. Powell, I think, of the Twelfth
Virginia onion Cavalry, wounded severely
in the back from a window in Wytheville,
and left behind was carried to Richmond
and planed in the hospital. A few_days
after, one of the Richmond papers railed
out against him in the most brutal man
ner, and suggested that he be executed.
The same Prison Inspector entered the
'hospital,-and without the - knowle of
t
from his bed and tollow e was
placed in one of the dungeons spoken of,
and upon asking what were the charges
against him, was answered, 'God ----
you, you shall soon find out.' Here, with
a ball in his back he temained five weeks
and four days, part of the time without a
blanket, rarely receiving any medical
, care, and sometimes his rations withheld.
A guard was placed constantly at the door
of his cell to prevent either escape or
communication with others. While con
fined there the entry was frequently block•
ed up with dead bodies, remaining there
several days, and this during the heat of
summer. This entry performed another
important Part, being the place where men
and women were daily brought to receive
their lawful allowance of lashes at the
hands of the Prison Inspector. A letter
was sent to General Winder by the Col.
onel, asking the charges and protesting
against his treatment. He denied any
knowledge of the matter, and suggested
that, perhaps, Genera/Jones was acquaint
ed with the facts. He also denied any
knowledge of the matter, and coolly asked
to know the °barges.
"He was released, I know not how, and
placed among us. This officer was the
victim of irresponsible authority and fiend
ish cruelty as wielded by this prison in.
spector. While confined in the cell, the
Colonel, who is a christian, asked in writ.
ing twice for a Bible, but no notice was
taken of the request. One officer, taken
at Gettysburg ; was slapped in the face
by this inspector, for saying that he thought .
he had no right to take from him a small
fragment of shell which he had in his
pocket as a relic. His acts of brutality
are numberless.
Brutal Treatment of Enlisted Men.
1 have so tar only given an outline of
the treatment and condition of the offi
cers, which in comparitton was a favored
one. I cannot describe the condition of
the enlisted men, as seen by the officers
and learned from sources at present
nameless. Hanger, bad treatment, and
exposure, have done their work too -
surely for many brave souls who have
gone up to testify at the bar of God to the
barbarities practiced upon them.' liany
of them, also, were shot by the guard
upon the most frivolous pretenses. Belle
Isle, our place of confinement, is supplied
with tents only sufficient for a part of the
men t the rest were compelled, daring
the cold nights, to pace up and down the
island to keep warm, and while the sun
was shining daring the day, they would
sleep. I have seen them marched through
the city barefooted, bareheaded, without
coats, and with only the remnants of
other articles of clothing.
I have seen them brought from this
island in the evening, to ship them in the
morning for City Point, so weak from
hunger and disease that they were unable
to stand upon their feet. Never have I
witnessed such misery and want among
class of human beings.
