A Visit After Many Years.
Mr. H.I. Gorham, of Vermont,
went over to Boone last week aud
took a look over the village and
surrounding country as a matter
of curiosity.
He was a soldier in the Federal
Army, under Gen. Grant, and was
captured by Gen. Mahom in Vir
ginia, on June tith, 1803.
On the 22 of June, as he was
being conveyed to Andersonville,
S.C., confined in a box car he and
another man broke out of the car
near Greensboro. They made
their way through the country to
Cook's Gap, where they stopped
for some time with Mr. Cook,
sleeping in his apple house.
Later the home guard came in
the vicinity looking for bush
whackers and they attempted to
escape the country, but the home
guard captured them and placed
them in Pooue jail. They re
mained in Boone jail for some
time and while there created quite
a sensation, as they had on blue
uniforms and were perhaps the
first Yankees ever seen in these
parts. They were afterwards tak
m to Andersonville as prisoners of
war.
Mr. Gorham finds many changes
in the country and met only a few
people that he had seen while in
this part of the country 4," years
ago.
