Colonel Theodore Lyman, With Grant and Meade from the Wilderness to Appomattox (ed. George R. Agassiz), chapter 8 (search)
tied down the safety-valve of a locomotive, built a big fire under the boiler, and blew her up by this scientific process. After distributing the contents of a number of Rebel Thanksgiving boxes on the principle of spolia forti, they ended by a display of fire-works consisting of a shed full of ammunition, which was fired and allowed to go off at its convenience. Then they retreated, in great glee, taking with them 170 prisoners, who were not in such great glee. One was a scamp named Major Fitzhugh, who, when Captain Lazelle, of our cavalry, was made prisoner, put a pistol to his head and made him give him his boots. Captain Freikle told me he had a mind to make the scoundrel march the twenty miles barefooted, but couldn't bring his mind to anything so mean. I would have made him do it. December 3, 1864 At the end of each month, General Meade sends up his pay-rolls, that is, a large printed sheet which each officer fills up, stating what the Government owes him, and saying tha

Orders No. 169, War Department, October twenty-seventh, 1862, I have the honor to report the result of an engagement at Fitzhugh's woods, six miles above Augusta, on White River, with the forces under Brigadier-General McCrae. On Wednesday afternoward McCoy's, one of his places of resort, to which place Captain Matthews pursued him. He, however, escaped. Beyond Fitzhugh's, we came upon one of their camps, which appeared to have been suddenly abandoned, and where, also, we found and appropI had reason to believe, a decoy to draw us into an ambuscade, I ordered that they should not be pursued. We arrived at Fitzhugh's, less than a mile from that road, and were resting, when the enemy made his appearance from the direction of McCoy's, in much larger force, our first notice being his attack on our rear-guard. The place can perhaps be best designated as Fitzhugh's woods, and was almost five hundred yards north of a well-known bayou or swamp. On the east side of the road was a fie

he brigade. It was night; but as it was highly important to communicate with Lee's brigade, with a view to crossing the next day, I sent my Adjutant-General, Major Fitzhugh, on the road on which General F. Lee was to have marched, to look for him, remaining myself at Verdiersville. At early dawn, next morning, I was aroused fromes. Having stopped at the nearest woods, I observed the party approach and leave in great haste, but not without my hat and the cloak which had formed my bed. Major Fitzhugh, in his searches for General Lee, was caught by this party, and borne off as a prisoner of war. General Lee's brigade did not arrive till the night of the eigArtillery.

division, openly denounces the precipitation of those who have agreed to swallow the detested oath. Captain J. W. Fannin, of Tuskegee, Alabama; Captain A. C. Gibson, of La Grange, Georgia; Lieutenant William A. Scott, of Auburn, Alabama; Major N. R. Fitzhugh, of Scottsville, Virginia, and others, come to my bunk frequently and earnestly discuss our exciting and heart-sickening surroundings. All of them have declined the oath, and the two former say they will remain firm as long as I do. Offics, Georgia; Lieutenant W. A.
