d the special control of Mr. Davis can be seen and interpreted from several small incidents which it may be well to rescue from the oblivion they justly deserve. Thus, Mr. Dana, Assistant Secretary of War, had in his orders to Miles mercifully, and possibly piously, permitted a Bible to be placed in the cells of both Davis and Clay. He was probably not familiar enough with its contents to know that it told of the disloyal effort of Moses to bring the children of Israel out of Egypt, or of David's revolt against the tyranny of Saul, else it would have been prohibited as dangerous literature. Be that as it may, the fact is he did permit a copy of the Bible to be left with each of the prisoners. In a few days they had the temerity to ask that their prayer-book and a little tobacco might be added to their scant comforts. Miles doubtless saw some occult treason in this request. He remembered the significance of Chops and Tomato Sauce in the famous case of Bardell v. Pickwick. The ma

Four crews went down with it in trial trips, ilt in Mobile in 1863 the famous and ill-fated David. This name was given to it because it was exple more than that of the displaced water.
