Q. You use the word "abstain" as you preferred to use the term "delayed" instead of "stopped" in regard to the rations?
A. It is hardly a parallel case ; they abstained from the food because it only aggravated their disease. The result of their abstaining from food was that they became greatly emaciated, and in a gTeat many cases death ensued; death resulted from their abstinence from food, from the nature of their food, not from starvation arising from the lack of food. I said salt was thrown
...over the stock- ade in quantities to suit purchasers. At the time the salt was thrown over the stockade, the number of prisoners was estimated at 33,000; salt was a luxury at Andersonville; I consider anything a luxury which is very scarce; salt was very scarce at Andersonville; it could only be obtained by purchase; all those who could afford it purchased salt; I cannot tell how many could afford it; there was a great many in the stockade who could afford it, a great many who had money; I suppose about one-third of the prisoners had money.
