On list of prisoners held by Confederate forces in 3/62
M. A. McClung, Alexander McClung, John W. O'Dell, Thomas A. Ramsay, Anthony Rader, Thomas Haywood. -Can find nothing in my opinion to justify their detention. The first two were sent down from General Floyd's brigade, but as they allege without his knowledge and without any specific charge against them, and none is made here except that they are suspected of disloyalty. The first, M. A. McClung, says that he is a secessionist and was arrested only because he was passing through General Floyd's camp to visit his brother in General Wise's camp the day before the battle of Cross Lanes, because as he was told no one could be allowed to leave that camp until after the battle which was then expected, and when after the battle the prisoners were sent down he was sent along without examination. The other four were Union men but all deny any complicity with the enemy; profess the utmost loyalty to the Confederate Government and their readiness to take the oath of allegiance if required to do so. They all reside near Summerville, and two of them, A. McClung and J. W. O'Dell, say that they passed once through the enemy's camp because it lay on the path of their avocations, and they were moreover curious to see the enemy's army under Tyler, and one of them, A. McClung, says that he exchanged some butter of coffee, giving eighteen pounds of butter for nine pounds of coffee. They are all Virginians, ignorant, illiterate and every simplemind. The sixth persons, Haywood, says that he is a sailor who was caught in Norfolk by the blockade, and crossed in an open boat to Warwick where his father resides with a view to join the army, and on his way home after landing he was caught and imprisoned. There is no charge against him.
