PART 2 CHAPTER
25
I ’M SCARCELY ABLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NIGHT AND day, submerged as I am in
a nightmare that regularly ambushes1 me now. Every sound reminds me of the past. Even the
creek2, my beloved creek below the house, is driving me mad. It assaults my hearing as it spills
over its banks, flooded with rains from the fall hurricane off the distant Virginia coast. Clapping
my hands over my ears makes the torment4 no less. The creek in its passage is chillingly similar
to waves beating against Pea Patch Island, where I was imprisoned5 for thirteen months.
After a six-day hike from Spotsylvania, union soldiers prodded6 us into cavernous freight cars
waiting in Washington. The cries of wounded men drowned out the thrum of spinning metal
wheels as we rolled first toward Baltimore, and then to the union Fort McHenry. There, blue-
uniformed officials stood behind wooden tables and piles of documents. With a sharp thwack of
a red rubber stamp, they changed our identities from soldier to prisoner.
A packet steamboat that stank7 of recently transported livestock8 was moored9 at the end of a
long dock jutting10 out from Fort McHenry. Our little group, along with hundreds of others, was
forced into the lower hold. The space was foul11 with manure
