Accordingly, at the usual hour, the small boats were manned and filled with "blue coats,"who, in a short time, were safety landed on , when they all proceeded to church. Our cavalry in the vicinity were immediately advised of their presence, and when they stepped out of the church door mine of Logan's men, "armed to the teeth," appeared before them. Three resisted and were shot, but the remainder gave them selves up quietly, and were soon conducted off to Gen. Rogan. The remainder of the Rattler's crew sent word out that unless their men were given up Rodney would be shelled but, upon being informed that if the town was shelled the prisoners would be swung to a tree, they concluded to consult Grant before taking any action. One of the prisoners remarked at Meridian it was a very cruel war where a man is taken prisoner while attending Divine worship.
