General Duffie ordered Captain Stevens, his provost-marshal, who was with him, to see the officer of his escort, and obtain from him ten well- mounted men to follow him. Leaving the remainder of his escort with the amlnilances.
When about five miles from Winchester, Genei'al Duffie was surprised by a party of three hundred of Moseby's men, who were waiting for a large wagon-train which was on its way to the army, and made a prisoner. He was captured in a private wagon, and not in an ambulance, ...as reported. His driver and two horses were killed, and his provostrmarshal severely wounded.
His captors hurried the General off to Richmond, where he arrived on the 1st or 2d of November; and where he Avas grossly insulted by the people, for the reason, they said, that he was one of Sheridan's cavalry leaders. Here he was thrown into Libby prison, and, without any reason known to him, was confined in a cell, again to be outraged and insulted ; not only by the notorious Dick Turner, but by many other officers of high rank in the service of the confederate states.
