Escape and Refuge from Prison to Union Lines
William E. Davis recounts a perilous escape from confinement, aided by enslaved Black people and Union supporters. The narrator details twelve days of hunger, cold, and secrecy, followed by passage with a Tennessee rescuing group led by Captain Dan Ellis, a young woman guide, and eventual return to Union control at Strawberry Plains. He calls for prisoner exchanges and government action to release captured soldiers.
