All this old material was useful to the Confederate soldiers, as it placed them in possession of arms much more valuable than those furnished by the War Department. During the greater part of the early summer of 1862 there were Federal troops located at our vil- lage. In the latter weeks of July a regiment of infantry and two companies of cavalry were en- camped about a mile away, and two companies of infantry were encamped at the edge of the village 16S i66 THE VALLEY CAMPAIGNS on duty as a gu...ard for the Provost-Marshal, who had his headquarters in the hotel. They were an orderly and well-behaved set of men, among whom were some very gentlemanly officers. As my home was in the suburbs the outpost picket was on a road near the house, and we could neither go in nor come out of the village, without a pass from the Provost-Marshal. The pass was given with- out objection; but as the pass was good only for the day on which it was issued, it was necessary to have it renewed frequently. In this way I learned to know the officers in charge quite well.
