An Incident.
"The sad and untimely death of Prof. Alfred Mouton Gardner, of this city, calls to mind an incident of the late war in which his lamented father, Gen. Frank Gardner, was one of the chief actors. The facts in the case were given to us by Hon. Wm. Garig, who, as one of the prisoners, was in a position to vouch for its correctness.
Upon the surrender of the Confederate forces by Gen. Gardner at the fall of Port Hudson, the private soldiers were paroled while the officers were confined in various prisons throughout the country. Mr. Garig, together with a number of others were taken to New Orleans, from whence, after a time, they were transferred to Governor's Island, and from thence after a short period, they were transported to Johnson's Island.
When the vessel containing the Confederate prisoners from Port Hudson arrived at Governor's Island a venerable Federal officer wearing the uniform of a colonel, took his position at the head of the gangway and grasped the hand of every prisoner as he passed by with the pathetic remark, "I want to shake hands with my son's brave soldiers."
The man wearing the colonel's uniform was Col. Gardiner, of the United States Army, and his son, who was captured after the gallant defense of Port Hudson was Gen. Frank Gardiner, the distinguished father of the young man who died here the other day.
Gen. Gardiner married a daughter of the late Ex-Gov. Mouton, and in early life removed to Louisiana, where he rose to distinction.
At the outbreak of the civil war he offered his sword and his life in defense of his adopted State. The father remained North and became a colonel in the U. S. Army, but in Louisiana his name is revered because he was the father of one of the most gallant of Confederate officers.
Prof. Alfred M. Gardner whose death we recorded yesterday inherited many of the admirable characteristics of his illustrious father and grandfather, and though cut off at the early age of 24, his life gave promise of a bright future--B. R. Advocate."
