four photographs showing some of the cruelties practiced on Northern -
soldiers by Rebels. (Pictures are exhibited at Sargeant's store.) He
says lack of food causes nausea, indigestion, weakness, and death.
among the soldiers. The doctor hopes that doubting people will. view
these photographs and become convinced. - -
"The value of these photographs consists in the silent, mournful,
but irrefragible witness they bear to the tales of rebel cruelty." . . (12)
