Stevenson, and others of our regiment, are in the build- ing, 1 accompany him up stairs, and the Confederate surgeon, remarking my nearly-disabled condition, invites me to remain at the hospital. But I am not permitted to accept this humane offer. Our Texan captain outside has orders to deliver his prisoners to Fort Buchanan,... and he is a literal constructionist of all superior orders. Go I must, he says, to the fort, if I am to be carried bodily. The considerate rebel surgeon offers to procure an ambu- lance or carriage, but the captain is in a hurry ; he must return this night, to Bayou Boeuff ; so I climb once more on a pony, and thus finish the march to Fort Buchanan. It is nearly midnight when we arrive and are deliv- ered into custody of another commander. Our cavalry captain rides away, with his troop, and we are ordered to make ourselves as contented as may be possible on the bare ground.
