ey were exposed to a continual fire. Here again the prisoners were put under guard of negro troops, the Fifty-fourth Massachusetts, of which regiment Shaw, of Boston, was colonel. From Morris island the prisoners were all removed to Fort Walker on Port Royal and Fort Pulaski in the Savannah river. Captain Pinckney was sent to the latter point, whence a month later he was included in an exchange of 100 sick and wounded made by Generals Jones and Foster, and he was landed in Charleston December 15, 1864. In April following, hearing that an order had been published declaring all prisoners on parole exchanged, he hastened to rejoin his regiment. General Hampton was now in command of the cavalry of General Johnston's army at Smithfield, N. C. He found his company, which he had left eleven months before numbering over ninety, now reduced to ten men fit for duty, and this the strongest company in the regiment.

for the detailed drawings of the [21] light-draught monitors, and for the calculations as to their displacement. It was expected that they would not draw over six and one-half feet of water, and be out of water amidships about fifteen inches. The contracts were made generally in the spring of 1863, and the vessels were to be furnished in the fall of that year. The Chimo, at Boston, was the first one finished. She was under the entire direction of Chief-Engineer Stimers. Instead of being fifteen inches out of water she was only three inches on an average, showing a miscalculation of one foot. The Department immediately removed Mr. Stimers from the position of general superintendent, and placed the question of what should be done to remedy the difficulties occasioned by his error in the hands of Rear-Admiral Gregory, Chief-Engineer Wood, and Captain Ericsson (letter of Assistant Secretary of the Navy, December 15, 1864, to Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War, vol. 3, 1865).
