ATE RATS
The G. A. R. Condemns the Century Report of the Treatment of Confederate Prisoners.
Indianapolis, Ind., April 4, A good deal of feeling is exhibited here among the ex-soldiers over the article in the Century magazine for April, charging that the Confederate prisoners of war almost starved, and that they ate rats and dogs, and were furnished with insufficient clothing, cruelly treated, etc. during the war. W. R. Holtaway, private secretary to Governor Martin during the war says that the statement is untrue.
