There are a great many of the prisoners here who cannot walk, and of course must be left behind.

All hands move as soon as they get their rations, so the quartermaster said, "and get over to Bell Isle; Tote all your dirty rags with you, as we won't have them here."

One of the boys spoke up and said we would leave them with him for a New Year's present.

What agony when comrades must part in this way, knowing full well that we will never see each other again.

They tried hard not to be parted, but they were not allowed to stay together.

Todas as mãos se movem assim que eles recebem suas rações, então o supervisor disse, "e vá para a Ilha Bell; leve todos os seus trapos sujos com você, pois não os teremos aqui.''
