They took all of Mr. Oldfield's horses and mules; hitched one mule forward of a cart and loaded it, taking a crippled negro to drive is away, and told Mr. Oldfield they would return next day after all the meat he had.--They also drove off all his stock, cows and calves, sheep and lambs, old dogs and pigs, and hitched one of Mr. Oldfield's horses to his own buggy and carried him and Mr. Cummings to Newbern. The horse started to runaway, as Mr. Oldfield told them he would, and Mr. Oldfield and Mr. Cummings were just in the act of jumping out as they stopped the horse, and all the Yankees had their rifles aimed at their heads, thinking they were going to escape. The Yankees also went to the house of Mr. Bynum, a very quiet, steady farmer, and took two of his horses. I have heard that a squad of them staidout at widow D. W.
