CHAPTER IX.


STATEMENT OF CHARLES W. REYNOLDS, WHO WAS TAKEN PRISONER AT NICKOJACK-STATEMENT OF NATHAN C. TYLER -STATEMENT OF DON R. FRAZER-CARRYING A DISPATCH -A CHAT WITH A SOUTHERN LADY-FORAGING IN SOUTH CAROLINA-VENISON STEAK, AND HOW THE BOYS GOT IT- CAPTAIN SMITH'S NEW BOOTS-SERENADING A DEAF AND DUMB ASYLUM.


Charles W. Reynolds, of Company I, Ninety-Second, was one of the soldiers on picket at Nickojack Gap, Georgia, on April twenty-third, 1864, and he thus narrates what he saw at the time of the capture, and what he experienced at Andersonville, and other Rebel prisons :


Lieutenant Horace C. Scoville, of Company K, was in com- mand of the outpost, with about sixteen men, I being among the number. We were on the main road that runs south parallel with Taylor's Ridge, and where the road crosses the Ridge and runs to Tunnel Hill. At that time the Union army lay west of, and the Rebel army east of, Taylor's Ridge; the Union troops being encamped about Ringgold, and the Confederate army south of Tunnel Hill. Taylor's Ridge separated the two armies. Our post was near the Gap, just where the mountain road crosses the Ridge, our reserve being a little way in rear at some old log buildings. We had several vedettes out, some at the Gap, and some along the top of the Ridge. In rear of our post, about three-quarters of a mile, was another post of about thirty men. We had been on duty nearly forty-eight hours, and no enemy had been seen along our lines. In the night, under cover of the darkness, a regiment or more of Rebel infantry had crossed Tay- lor's Ridge in our rear, and barricaded the road. I was at the head-quarters of the picket, having been on duty during the night. My brother William was on guard at the head-quarters of the picket. Just at daybreak we heard firing up the road, at the top of the Ridge, and, instantly, the reserve was mounted, and await-

ing orders. Lieutenant Scoville, observing that the boys on the Ridge were having a lively time, ordered some of us to go and assist them, and five of us immediately started. We soon met the boys coming down, saying : "Fall back to the head-quarters of the picket, for the Rebels are as thick as bees." The bullets were whistling around us-we fell back rapidly, but before we reached the picket post the Rebels were charging down the main road from the Gap, and driving everything before them. Lieutenant Scoville ordered the pickets back onto the reserve, hoping to stop the Rebel charge there; but, instead of reaching the reserve, he ran into the trap prepared in our rear by the Rebel infantry, and he and all with him were immediately captured or killed. The little squad I was with, seeing that we were cut off from our main reserve, took back again through the fields, the enemy on both sides of us and in our rear, and popping it to us with their rifles, which, in the morning dawn, was not a pleasant sight to us, as the flames leaped from the muzzles of their guns. We were making good time, and we hoped to reach the next post, when we saw that the Rebels were heading us off. They had already cap- tured Lieutenant Scoville and the men with him, and were after us. They were well mounted, and dashed forward, and cut off our only hope of escape. Up to this time I had done more run- ning than fighting-I changed tactics, and, halting my horse, I played my Spencer Rifle on them until a Rebel, with twenty more closely following, came upon me, the Rebel shouting : " Surrender, you - Yankee son-of-a -. " I didn't object to his abrupt way of speaking, but, as quietly and gracefully as I could, I informed him that I was at his service. He told me to dismount, and give up my arms; then, taking my horse by the halter-strap, said: " Yank, if you will behave yourself, you can ride back over the Ridge to our lines." I mounted, and he led my horse. He questioned me closely, but I was not very com- municative. He showed his generosity by giving me two crack- ers, and told me I had better take them, for it would be a long time before I would get anything to eat. I took them, and voted my captor the most gentlemanly Reb I was acquainted with. Would to God that my comrades had fallen into as good hands. We soon passed our captured boys; they had been dismounted, and were double-quicked to keep up with the Rebel cavalry, now rapidly falling back to Tunnel Hill, evidently fearful that the Yanks would follow. But our camps were eight miles from Nick- ojack, and they need not have been in such a hurry. They shot
