Thursday, October 13. — Lieutenant Kramer tried to get away last night, but failed. Saw the two-headed negro girl[1] at the City Hall window, where the man brought her at our request. She has two bodies joined back to back, and she played on musical instruments, etc., with both sets of hands at once. Wrote Major Forbes. A major of the 17th Maine was in here this afternoon. He came from the stockade, and goes on to Charleston for exchange to-morrow. 20 officers sent on from Charleston stopped here last night, on their way to the stockade. Day pleasant. Drew $500; $100 to Colonel Buffum, $150 to Colonel Marshall, $50 to Colonel White, $50 to Major Filler, and $150 to Captain A.
[1] The girl was afterwards on exhibition at the North, in Boston among other places.
