that must be surely the darkest hour of my existence. While thus lamenting my fate, and almost distrustful of relief, a boy near me asked what regiment I belonged to. I told him the Washington Artillery. Why, says he, there is a whole company of them fellows here captured near Petersburg. I began to revive a little on that. For though the saying goes, that Misery seeks strange bed fellows, I sought for old acquaintances, and soon found them. The surprise was mutual. By the kindness of Mr. Vinson, I had good quarters with him, and was more comfortable. We had a small tent, and only six in it. True, we were packed like sardines at night, but we were friends, and each one had a pride and disposition to keep as cleanly as we could. The food allowed was as follows: In the morning, early, the men are marched by companies (each about one hundred and fifty) to the cook houses, and receive a small piece of boiled beef or pork. I do not think the largest piece ever given. would weigh th

that these would best express our sympathies in her behalf. Mr. William Ward, of Macon, proposed to organize a company of infantry to enlist in the army of Texas, whereupon thirty-two men came forward and enrolled their names as volunteers. The citizens, before the meeting adjourned, subscribed $3,150 to the equipment and other expenses of the company. As the company passed through Knoxville and Columbus, Ga., more recruits were enrolled. At Knoxville Miss Joanna E. Troutman (late Mrs. Vinson, of Crawford county, and daughter of the late venerable Hiram B. Troutman, of Macon, Ga.,) made a handsome banner of white silk, with a single blue star of azure upon it, and sent it to Lieutenant McLeod, to present to the company at Columbus. The following is a copy of the letter acknowledging the receipt of the banner: Columbus, Ga., Nov. 23d, 1835. Miss Joanna: Colonel Ward brought your handsome and appropriate flag as a present to the Georgia Volunteers in the cause of T
