Ricordo della guerra della ribellione, 1861-1865 . le disagi del nostro campo sulla via dei parassiti degli insetti legno-zecche, serpenti, ragni enormi e innamable crawling things.and le difficoltà di fare il nostro campo, il unevenground, in parte essendo i resti di un vecchio forte ribelle, ceppi, alberi morti e sottobosco, tutti insieme rendendo ita il luogo più proibitivo. C'era, tuttavia, sull'isola una crescita piuttosto estesa di pino duro, quercia viva, cipresso, palmetto e alberi di magnolia. Con tutti i nostri servizi fino a questo momento, ad eccezione della campagna dell'isola di James, avevamo sperimentato solo poche cale

. Reminiscences of the war of the rebellion, 1861-1865 . thediscomforts of our camp in the way of insect pests—wood-ticks, snakes, huge spiders and unnamable crawling things.and the difficulties of making our camp, the unevenground, in part being the remains of an old rebel fort, stumps, dead trees and underbrush, all together making ita most forbidding place. There was, however, upon theisland quite an extensive growth of hard pine, live oak, cypress, palmetto and magnolia trees. With all of our services up to this time, except ourJames Island campaign, we had experienced but little ofthe hardships of the soldiers life; the real campaigningwas yet to come. Here upon Botany Bay we had forsome weeks the usual camp duties. I remember Botany Bay also from the fact of my be-ing detailed for the first time by the colonel as acting ad-jutant of the regiment. Adjutant Libby being detailed asacting assistant adjutant general, upon Colonel Jacksonsstaff, who was in command of the post, Lieutenant Col-onel Bedel being in command of the regiment. 212. NAVAL ATTACK UPON CHARLESTON It was here, too, that a court-martial was convenedto try one of our captains, who had been placed under ar-rest under the charge of sleeping upon his post when incommand of the picket-guard. I was detailed upon thecourt-martial and as judge advocate. It was a new anduntried duty for me, and from subsequent knowledge ofsomething- of the importance of such a position, it appearsin my reminiscence of the conditions, that I was eminentlyunfitted for such a position, and the strange part of itwould appear to be, that Colonel Jackson, who convenedthe court, should not have selected one older and of moreexperience. It so happened that Colonel Bedel who had provedhimself most friendly and ready to stand by me in all mydifficulties, was a lawyer by profession and by his help Isustained myself upon this occasion, he helping methrough the proceedings of the court and in making up myreport.
