Mr. Benjamin, Secretary of State, and General Breckinridge, Secretary of War.
Benjamin and Breckinridge owed their escape to Wood, for Wood was an old naval officer and a thorough seaman.
On the coast of Florida they bought a row-boat, and in company of a few others they rowed down the coast, intending either to cross to Cuba or the Bahamas.
