—Was living in the house of a Widow S., who had two sons on commando. English

her food to force her to make her husband surrender. During this time she had a baby. Three
times they came and searched the house, and the fourth time came when baby was only two
days old, on which occasion tore up the floors, broke doors, windows, ceilings, etc. At last
broke all the furniture, and when baby was two months old she was brought to camp. Would
not ask her husband to surrender.

proclamation, in which, like others, he had trusted. Lived quietly after that. February 1st he
and wife and children taken and given two hours to prepare. Arrived in Camp Fehruary 4th.
Had tried to get blacksmith work in town, but trade slack, because no iron can be got up to
work. It was sad to see the food in Petrusville destroyed. Flour bags cut and the white flour
strewn about the streets.
In the tent two families—in all nine persons. Three of the children with measles. No beds.
The dew falls thickly now, and every night beds and clothes are saturated. It takes all day
spreading them in the sun to get them dry again. Wearing apparel must be put on damp.
