Andersonville was one of the largest Confederate military prisons during the Civil War. During the 14 months the prison existed, more than 45,000 Union soldiers were confined here. Of these, almost 13,000 died here. Today, Andersonville National Historic Site is a memorial to all American prisoners of war throughout the nation's history.
From May through November 1864, 20-year-old Sergeant Major Robert H. Kellogg of the 16th Regiment Connecticut volunteers and most of his regiment were confined in Confederate prisons at Andersonville, Georgia and Florence, South Carolina. Upon entering the notorious Andersonville prison, Kellogg scribbled into his diary: “Our hearts failed us as we saw what used to be men now nothing but mere skeletons covered with filth & vermin.”
Robert Kellogg’s “Life and Death in Rebel Prisons” was published in 1865, right after the American Civil War while the horrors of that time were still fresh in the author’s memory. The book was based on his journal and the accounts of other Union Army prisoners. It details the harsh conditions and daily atrocities of life in Confederate prisons as well as some details of the war.
"Not green corn, protector of the poor -- melons," said little Toomai. From the story Toomai of the Elephants.
“The Jungle Book” by English author Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) is a collection of short animal stories with moral lessons that Kipling may have written for his daughter who died at age six in 1899. The stories appeared in magazines in 1893-94 and came out in book form from MacMillan Publishers in 1894. Kipling was born in India, spent the first six years of his childhood there and returned as an adult to work there for about six-and-a-half years. He put into his stories everything he knew about the Indian jungle, the best known of which are the three stories revolving around the adventures of an abandoned boy, Mowgli, who is raised by wolves. Other famous stories in the collection include “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi,” a heroic mongoose, and “Toomai of the Elephants,” a tale of a young elephant handler.

After I posted the photos on this car I discovered it was an error car....no windows. I've no idea why I didn't notice before I opened it, but it went straight into a plexiglass container. Going to have to be more careful before I open these I suppose.

I thoroughly enjoy the ink's interaction with the page in this image.
Look around and see the excess in splotching and the wicking of ink into the fibers. The paper itself has such great texture.

“They had started down the hill by this time. There in the middle of the moonlit valley below them stood the “ha’nted” house, utterly isolated, its fences gone long ago, rank weeds smothering the very doorsteps, the chimney crumbled to ruin, the window-sashes vacant, a corner of the roof caved in. The boys gazed awhile, half expecting to see a blue light flit past a window; then talking in a low tone, as befitted the time and the circumstances, they struck far off to the right, to give the haunted house a wide berth, and took their way homeward through the woods that adorned the rearward side of Cardiff Hill.” [From “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,” page 198]
