fl FULL REGIMENT,
Os Virginia “Coons" PiltUn
der Arrest.
ALL OF’EM TH 3E SHOT,
Says Qen. Wilson, Unless Bet
ter Conduct is had. ,
•
Macon, Ga., Nov. 21. —Satur-
day night at 9 o’cleck it was re
ported to the command mt of
the provost guard that a large
body of the Sixth Virginia col
ored volunteers, who had been
in a riotous mood at Crump’s
park all day, had determined to
come to tqwn with arms and re
lease seine of their comrades
from the guard house.
Maj. Logan promptly sent to
the Third engineers for re-en
forceroenl, and Capt Stickney,
with company C. was sent to his
assistance. Hardly had they
reached the city when the re
ports bee.. me more frequent and
alarming as to the threatening
of the colored troops, and Colo
nels Biddell and Cecil, of Gen.
Wilson’s staff, were sent out'to
summon Col. Gilliard and the
remaining companies of the
Third'engineers to go at once to
the camp* of the Sixth Virginia
and take full control of the situ
ation. The order reached the
camp a*. 11 p. m.
Col. Gilliard, whois a regular
F army officer with much experi
ence immediately ordered the
proper calls sounded and in a
brief time had the regiment un-
1 der arms.
| Ammunition to the amount of
I twenty rounds per man was dis
! tributed and the regiment, led
by 7 tho colonel, was on the
march. Orders were given that |
no noise of unnecessary kind be
made and the march to the col
ored camp was made 8o quietly
that very few of the Citizens on
the wav knew that a regiment
was passing by fully armed and
determined to preserve the pub
' pc peace.
i The Third engineers is a su
perb body of soldiers, recruited
from the best material in the
sixteen Southern states, and
drilled to a finish in all the
work rnquired of regular sol
! diers. Gen. B ites has said of
them that “they are more like
L regulars than any other regi
i meat in the army.”
, T! ey are prompt, obedient
. and fearless in the discharge of
i their duties and the citizens
wherever they are stationed can
i rely upon their dignified bear-*
. ing and their ability tc protect
, every interest confided to their
j care.
Not only were the engineers
. prepared for handling the riot
[ ous soldiers, even to deadly bat
j tie, but Dr. Schuelke, the sur
geon, had two ambulances, op
erating eases and attendants
, with the command to look after
; those who might happen to
■ wounds or other casualties,
q Col. Gaillard marched rapidly
, to the scene of trouble and
had the regiment covering the
campin all directions before the
colored troops realized that they J
were being surrounded and held'
in arrest. Many of the colored
soldiers were already in bed,
b it the entire command was or
dered into line and ordered to
stack arms in front of the con -
panies.
Much amazed at this turn <>f |
affairs and somewhat dazed by t
■ the sight of a ' stern array of
I white soldiers all about them,
I
the colored men stacked their
guns and found the entire regi-l
meat under arrest and guard.
Six hundred and twenty-nine
guns were loaded into the empty
wagons brought along by the
engineersand were hauled back I
to their camp.
The Third battalion of engi
neers, under Major Ornum, was
left in charge or the camp, with j
sentinels on all the lines, sup-!
planting those of the Virginia
regiment.
The Second Ohio was also or
dered out and the Fifth im
ruunes put under arms to be
used in any emergency beyond
the power of the engineers to
control.
The situation looked despera e
for a few hours, but the prompt
action taken and the cool and
I rapid work of the troops intrust-
■ed with the delicate work soon |
dissipated all danger.
The engineers returned to
their camp, except the battalion
on guard, at 4 :50 a. m. and
went back to bed as quietly as if
they hal only taken a practice
spin down the road At present
the situation is that of peace
and safety.
