Federal Prisoners South
Summary
Lt. T. H. Stewart, a recently exchanged prisoner who is a member of the 5th MD Regiment, was imprisoned at Columbia, SC. He has published a "heart-sickening account" of the treatment of Union prisoners. The paper asks, "What is to be done?" "Retaliation" is one answer, but not by treating Confederate prisoners as Union prisoners have been treated. Stewart furnishes names of Maryland officers imprisoned at Columbia and their regiments. One of the prisoners is Lt. Long of Frederick.
