Officers and privates were subjected to the same fare, which consisted of a small allowance of sour bread and salt meat twice a day, with an occasional introduction of very weak soup.

Rowan and the other men of the Petrel were carried to Philadelphia, and consigned to Moyamensing prison, where they were kept in irons for six months and twenty days, thence were carried to Fort Lafayette, where, after the departure of most of the able-bodied soldiers of the garrison to reinforce McClellan, they were required to do police duty, and, refusing, were again ironed.
