ehind when they left Arlington Heights, but Capt. Hutchins wrote, We have two towels and some soap, and the Potomac runs near us. Exposure to river fogs at night brought on fever and ague. Men not on picket duty were employed at target practice. Foraging was especially prohibited, and three companies were made to pay fifty dollars for twenty-seven hogs killed. Perhaps some of Co. C's deviltry entered into the swine, for the lieutenant was reprimanded for allowing firing by his men. December 20, 1862, after serving all the fall on picket and as river guard, the regiment went into winter quarters at Poolesville. Tents were supplied with bunks and straw. April 14, 1863, marching orders were received. A week later, the 39th was in barracks at Washington, D. C., acting as provost guard. From April to July our company enjoyed the pleasure of renewing old friendships and of doing easy work. July 12, 1863, just after the Battle of Gettysburg, the regiment marched to Funktown, Marylan
From Fredericksburg.[Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] Camp Near Port Royal, December 20, 1862. The late storm of battle having subsided, we again find ourselves in camp enjoying ourselves as well as soldiers might be expected during the winter season.

James Ellett, of the Crenshaw battery, was killed, he was ordered off with the first section to take position, leaving the second section to follow a few hours later. Before leaving he shook hands with and bade those he left behind good bye, as if he felt that he would never see them again, though he expressed no such fears. He was a
Seventy-five Dollars reward --I will give for the apprehension and commitment to jail, so that I get them, of negroes Pompey, Jim, and William Henry, or $25 for each, who ran off — Pompey and William Henry on the 27th, and Jim on the 20th of December 1862. These negroes I removed from Williamsburg (my former residence) in May last, and doubtless, they are aiming through Petersburg and Richmond, to reach the Yankee lines in that vicinity, or to pass over James river below Petersburg. Jim is a tawney color, about 20 years old, and Pompey a shade darker, 18 years old, likely, talk, and well grown; each wore a cavalry uniform cap, and each had on woodend bottom shoes and plated Jim had on a pair of blue homespun pants, and Pompey a blue Yankee coat, and he has lately had one of his fingers (probably of the right hand) britised or mashed. William Henry, a likely lad, about 14 years old, and of tawney color, is doubtless with Pompey. Robert H. Armistead, Forkland, Nottoway
