The fall months of 1864 were marked byoccasional raids in our vicinity, with orders, at times, to sleep onour arms. The capture of a large supply of revolvers, which weresurreptitiously landed near us, indicated the necessity of strictlyguarding the lines, and at the same time, furnish those of us whoneeded them, an ample supply of that weapon.
During this period, we organized schools for the instruction of ourmen. While some of them were comparatively well educated and were veryserviceable in
...various kinds of clerical work, a large proportion ofthem were destitute of the most rudimentary knowledge. Through theChristian Commission, of which Ex-Mayor J. V. C. Smith, of Boston, wasin our department the efficient agent, we were amply supplied withvarious kinds of books and utensils, embracing primers, arithmetics, slates and pencils, besides a liberal allowance of reading matter. Ourmen were eager recipients of these and made good use of them. We triedto stimulate their pride in every way possible, and the great majorityof them learned to sign their names to our rolls instead of makingtheir mark.
