The missing 10th part to J. Montgomery Bailey’s account of his capture, captivity, and subsequent parole following Gettysburg is no longer missing in action. The November 19, 1863 edition is not microfilmed and this portion was unavailable. Thanks to Keith Miller, the entire account is now online for your perusal. Keith, who presents on the 17th CVI as well, relates that the entire series was reprinted by Bailey in 1866 after he purchased the Danbury Times. This part was publsihed in the May 17, 1866 edition.
Bailey’s account is one of the very few published accounts from a member of the 17th that recounts the POW experience following Gettysburg.
A big thank you to Keith for finding it, transcribing it and sending it along to the site!
