Among the Union prisoners that arrived at Fortress Monroe from Richmond, Va., was our ex-local Charles H. Comley, Sergeant Major of the 20th Indiana regiment. He refused to avail himself of the thirty days furlough offered the prisoners to go home and see their families, but immediately rejoined his regiment. Good for Charlie!
