CHANGING THE GUARD AT ELMIRA PRISON, 1864 This photograpli of the quarters of the guards who kept watch of the thousands of Confederate prisonersconfined at Elniira shows that conditions were much better outside the camp than in. The long shadows ofthe regular lines of tents indicate plainly that it was taken late in the afternoon. The leafage on the treesfixes the season as summer. The men are apparently engaged in changing guard. Dr. E. F. Sanger,tlie surgeon attached to Elmira, had great difficulty in getting his requisitions filled. In the midst of plentyin the rich State of New York the prisoners were attacked by scur\y on account of lack of fresh vegetables.
