Thomas E. Rose.
The Federal colonel who tunneled out of Libby in 1864.
I never knew any man to make a correct calculation of the time of a tunnel's completion.
But you can always conclude, when its engineers declare positively that it will be done in two days, that it will stil kept in prison at Richmond.
Colonel Streight and four of his officers escaped from Libby Prison with 105 other Union officers by means of a tunnel dug by Colonel Thomas E. Rose and a few associates, on February 8, 1864. that they scattered, and the entire detail of prisoners escaped.
On several occasions, when smallpox was prev nfined in the Confederacy, Libby Prison, Richmond, was guarded with especial vigilance, but nevertheless many officers escaped from here.
In February, 1864, by the efforts of Colonel Rose, a tunnel was dug from the storeroom in the basement of the building, under the wall and the adjoining street, beneath the feet of the guards.
