12^ bought axes of the sentinels, who had purloined them from the Quartermaster or their regiment; and after wood was brought into the prison by the Commissary tlie owner of these tools often made an extra fuel ration, by loaning them to those wlio had no otlier means of cutting it. The quantity of this wood was extremely small, so small indeed, that I hesitate to make an estimate of it, lest I should be disbelieved ; but it is safe to assert that no more than one fourth of a cord was ever give...n to a detachment for one day ; this divided equally among two hundred and seventy men, would give to each a little more than one ninth of a foot, or, to reduce it still farther, it was equal to a green pine board one inch in thickness, twelve inches long, by five wide. This was the maximum; the minimum was no wood at all, which was frequently the case. This wood was drawn to us in various conditions ; being mostly the tops of trees that had been felled to obtain the stockade timbers; it consisted of large and small sticks vary- ing from a foot to an inch in diameter, and from two to twenty feet in length.
