Returned Home
Summary
Lt. Charles H. Long, Co. I, 1st Potomac Home Brigade, returned to Frederick recently nine months after having been captured by Mosby’s guerillas. He said that he and his fellow prisoners were treated poorly by the Confederates. He met a number of prominent citizens formerly of Frederick who had joined the rebels, including ex-Gov. Lowe and Gen. Brad. Johnson. Capt. Geo. R. Shellman, of the provost guard in Goldsboro, NC, interrogated him and placed him in close confinement for five days.
