PRISON LIFE IN TEXAS.
Capture, Imprisonment and Escape of J. N. Hotcard,
Co. "E," 32 Iotra Volunteers.
CIIAPTKR I.
Though there htw been
much
wliittt'ii concerning other pris
on tlurinir the rebellion, ther
hit Im-ii little iJ of the Tyler I'rla-
on in 'IVxat. A many have spoken
to mi" in to thin , I have tie-
i-i.l. il to give the people a short nar
rative of that prison an near as I can
from memory aluee I have no mem
linn of dates. J will give it as
eorreet usille without fiction
f.icts only u they hapenel in the
prinit of IhG-I.
My regiment, the 32J wan In
c.tni at Vkk.-burg In command of
lener.il Sherman. About April lit
there was a call for ten thou-wnd of
rilii-rmnu'rt iirm to aiwifit General
Ilinki in the Red Jtivcr expedition.
Till- detitchmcnt was commanded
by (Jen. A. J. Smith, wan provided
with ten tran."orts. one thou.saud
men to the vessel; we had gnn boatn
in fmnt .rl reur Wo -s'arled cs
the !Hli of April.
This g.illant crew proceeded up
tlio river in Rood spirits, anxious to
meet the reh'rt who had made their
boast that the whole world could not
take Texas. Wo found them in force
on the Atehafala where they were
ritronjrly fortified. We landed our
transports two miles lielow their fort.
Our un limit proceeded up toward
the fort; the infantry coming up in
the rear on land and soon Hucceeded
in dislodint; the enemy who evaru
Hied and fell back to Fort lerussy
where they were located in a short
liend in the river and very strongly
fortifiel.
The town of Derussy through
which we passed was three miles
from the fort. For mime distance the
road was acros-s a level plaiu to
point where it turned square to the
east on the way to the fort. It was
down grade for a half mile. At the
mouth of a lane my company, being
directly in front, was surprised by
receiving the enemy's fire from his
heaviest guns. Although they were
still more than a mile away, the ball
passed directly over our heads bare
ly missing us and struck the ground
lust at the foot of our company. For
tuuutely it did us no harm. This
was the first that we knew of their
whereabouts. Here wo halted and
s-ned ranks. This left the road
clear for our artillery to pass from
. rear to front. They came down the
lane as fast as their horses could run
inaamg 1110 very eariu tremble as
they came. They passed through
the timler and took position on an
open Held in plain view of the enemy
Here there was a deadly fire opened
on both sides, w hich was indeed ter
rible. Wo could scarcely distinguish
time Ix'twecn tlio reKrta of the can
non. While this was going on, the
Infantry marched on quick time
through tho timber and out on the
open ground in sight of the rebel
fort.
The Johnies opened lire on us with
one of their heaviest guns, the ball
passing just over heads. We w ere
ordered to the hollow and barely es
caped the next bull. We passed down
the hollow until we were out of range
of their artillery though they could
drop theij Minall balls all around us.
Here I'ttptaln Howard was sent out
to reconnoltcr and And out the osl
tion of the reus.
lie came back in a short time and
called for llfty sharp shooters, fifty of
us boys rescinded, we started across
a high point of ground in plain view
of their fort. They threw their lead
uncomfortably close but we succeed
ed In gaining a partial shelter behind
stumps and logs and in a very short
time wo silenced their big guus.
Then there was a general charge
made all along the line. I tell you
it was a grand sight to see tho blue
coats Hying toward the fort, pouring
volley after volley into tho rtnV
When we got to within a short dis-l
imice i me ion, mo Johnies run up
tlio white ting. There was a ditch 8
leeiWKloand eight feet deep, the
dirt being thrown out on one side,
making it sixteen feci dtep from the
Isittoiu of the ditch to the top of the
breastwork. We ran down into the
ditch then up on the top. The John
ies w ere veiy glad of a chance to sur
render. They mid that they expect
ed that we would kill tho lust man
of them, but instead of that we shook
hands with them and passed the
matter otT In a Joke as if it had been
merely a game of foot ball. We
captured a good many prisoners and
arms. The next day wo proceeded
up tho river as far as Alexandria
w here we expected a general Maud
but somehow the rebs did not etm
so disposed and they fell Iwck to
Mirevesport.
As ltunks was marching by Isnd
we in the boats could go no faster
than he marched as we bad to stay
In line w ith him until we got within
forty or liny miles of 8hreveport.
Then we had to stop until we heard
from Hanks. We tied up all day
and until the nevt morning, when
at the break of day we heard the can
non in the direction of Khreveaport
We were ordered in line of march at
oneo, leaving our boats and sick, be
hind. This seemed bard to do at in
all probability we would never see
rath other again. Here I will make!
mention of one brave boy in particu
lar by the name of W. II. long who
was disabled at the battle of Derussy.
When we went to bid him goodby,
he turned his head toward some very
l
nioe evergreens and said that is the
most beautiful sight I ever saw, he
then said goodl-y, vktMk hands. We
left him with wtf others. He
lived a few days. W& started on a
forced march toward tfie 4fita
cannonading which was constant all
day. We traveled until in the night
v lien we weut into camp! we found
ourselves on a pleasant hill, the can
non bad ceased firing and all was
quiet as far as we knew. We made
our coffee, eat our hard tack and ba
con. I had but one relative with
me. Jasper Parrlott by name. He
was my cousin, and a good boy. He
and I slept together. After eating
our hard tack, we gathered some
leaves and ziadc m a bed. We lay
dow n when Jasper said "this may be
the last time we will make our bed
together" and my reply was ! hoiie
not," though 1 knew It was very
likely as the probabilities were that
we wouln be calhd in battle the next
morning. We knew that the battle
bad been raging all day but we knew
nothing of the result. This was kept
from us. We slept well, was not
disturbed until morning which was
bright and clear, we eat our break
fast and waited for orders. About
uiue o'clock we were ordered in line
tnd marched out to the main travel
ed road which was a quarter of a mile
off. When we struck the main road
we could then see some of the c-ifects
of the battle of the day, hereon either
side of the road was hundreds of the
boys that had been In the battle
Now readers you will ask the quos
Hon, "what was the appearance of
those boys?" My answer Is, "horri
fylng to one not accustomed to seeing
snch things." They were all, more
or less, injured, there were those
called slightly wounded but made a
bad appearance from the fact that
they were alt bandaged with w hite
cloth around some part of the bodv,
arm, leg or the head hand or foot.
As we come up they said "boys it is
your turn now you will catch It to
day" well, we did catch It for a fact
and I will try to tell you how it
come anout. We marched out to
the open field, where we left our
knapsacks In a pile. Then we turn
ed to the file left, look our stand Just
in the edge of the open field with the
Imttery infront and was playing away
on the robs a half-mile off, Just at the
other side of the field though thev
had not made their appearance.
They were laying very close to the
ground and waiting for reinforce
ments from Prices army which ar
rived about two o'clock.
While waiting here in line of bat
tle, my sousln made a can of coffee
then brought it to me and said, "help
me drink my coffee, it may be the
last time we will take dinner togeth
er" well we sat down and commenced
drinking coffee when the rebs made
their appearance on the other side of
the field. They came out of the tlm-
ber like swarms of liees and yelping
like wolves, first a linr of calvery aud
In the roar their Infautry. On they
came; we stood there without firlmr
shot until they were within fifty
yards of us, when we opened fire on
them and sent them back as fast as
they come, though there was many
of them poor fellows that did not get
nack. nut this did not end the mat
ter for as soon as they could fall back
and reform, they came again and
were repulsed as before. These
charges were kept up all the after
noon, at last being reinforced and
throwing their force on our flanks,
our lines were broken. Onr forces
fell back and reformed forty rods in
the rear, planting batteries and cov
ering them with pine boughs. The
enemy, thinking that the reform for
ces were in full retreat, rushed ou
and fell into the trap that was set for
them. When they came in range of
our big guns those bows were thrown
otf aud fired Immediately, the Infant
ry pored in such a deadly fire that
the ttemy was completely routed
sad driTMl ffrus the field.
J tin Lwt ekarge 1 was not in as
I was captured and was going across
the open field under guard going
pretty fast as the bullets from our
boys was flying all around. I said
"let thrm come," for our boys were
following them and pouring into
them a storm of lead. I knew when
I heard our boys rulse the yell that
they were victorious. It was the
first time that day, but I was not
with them. I will tell you how It
came about : Our line of battle was
m a semicercle, my regiment, tfie
i'l'l Iowa Infantay, was in the center
and was closer to the enemy than the
rest of the line. WhtHithenmiiuan.il
was given to retreat we did not bear
the order as our dispatch barrier was
killed, the second dispatch barrier
was also killed. The third one was
sent then. We had orders to retire.
By this time nearly all of my com
rads were killed, yes, piled up ou the
field ot battle. I will give the names
of some ot my friends that fell in that
battle, the lirst that fell was Captain
Howard who dropted at the first
charge. After that charge some of
the boys fell at every volley my coils'
in, jasper t'arrioit rougnt aitout an
hour when a ball struck him on the
side of the nose passing straight
through the head. He fell aud
crawled on his hands and knees.
Delance I'atteut was another one of
my best friends, e boy about 18 years
old his place in rank was Just be
hind me, when he would shoot his
gun he would hold It close to me.
When the shooting stopped In the
rear I looked around and saw l'attent
lying at my feet. There were two
brothers, Luther and .Charles I-ewis
they were both both good boys, Pat
tent was a brother-in-law of Luther
and wheu Luther saw that Patient
was dead, he took his stand by his
side and every time he fired his gun
he would hold right over Pattenf.
I think he fought for an hour when
a ball struck him square in the fore
head and he fell back against his bro
ther Charles. I make mention of
these boys to show my readers how
the battle went.
We finally received orders to fall
back then to our surprise we saw
that every regiment on the lino had
been driven back, the rebs were
marching down on us two columns
deep. What there were left of us
started back. Just then there was
anotht r one of tho boys struck in the
neck and cut the Jugler vein he, rush-
.l . I I V . .
en tome ior neip, i inrew uown my
gun and tried to bind np his neck
with a part of my shirt, this was to
stop the blood which was running in
a stream as large as a straw. The
blood was spinning out I think six
feet before it struck the ground. I
could do but little then as the rebels
were so close that I was compelled to
run for life. I caught up to the rest
I of the boys who were going back in
a fast walk, shooting as they went.
They were going back single file tnd
I was the rear man. A boy by the
name of Julians Walters was first in
rank ahead of me. We had not gone

but a short distance when Julians
turned to shoot, he leveled his gun,
but a ball struck him Just above the
belt. I think it uiu.it have passed
through his heart, his gun dropped
from his hands, he realed clear
around and fell square on his back.
All the struggle be made was a mov
ing of the lips. Poor boy he was
gone and I could do nothing for him
(I will make mention of him here
after) when he fell I stooped to see
what could be done, seeing it was all
over with him I started to run but
the rebs had got iu the advance of
me and cut me on" entirely. All I
could do was to surrender at once or
die on th6 spot. I was searched 'for
valuables. While this was beiug per
formed, I looked off about three rods
from me there lay my cousin, Jasper
looking straight at me. He was still
auve nui i was not permuted to go
to mm. i nail to leave him there to
sutler and die with so many others.
It was now sondown, the air was
quite cool and of course those wound
ed would soon i hill to death. Ob,
think or the horrors of that night as
they could not be attended to that
uigiit, there were some of them that
were able to make a fire to warm
themselves and those that vn. craw!
to the fire did so. There was one
poor boy that was shot through the
louer part of tho tsiwlett aud let his
intestiues out on the ground but he

and warmed them.
Now I have told you how it hap

mg the rebs very hard. They kept
mt going quite fast for three iuIl-h
when 1 took a rest for a while for the
iuroe of bringing up some mole
of the boys who had met the same
fate as myself. In a short time theie
were seven of us together. While
they was holding me there, the guard
nad many q uestious to ask m . They
wanted to know what we were fight
ing them for. I told them that wedid
uot want to fight; that we were there
against our will, but the union must
be saved at all hazards, that Wash
ington was the father of our country
and it was their duty to remain iu
tne union. "es, but you want to
take our negroes from us." So I
told them, "not until It becomes a
war necessity." I told them that
Lincoln had declared the negroes free
against his will. I told them all this
and lots more. I felt In a mood to
talk Just then. I was thinking of
inose ooys mat was lying on the Oat
tie Held those that stood by me in
mauy places of trial, many hard davs
marcning. tney were there no
more.
We started on our march and went
seven miles, where we stopied for

guard around us. We were started for excellent manufacture,
