'IThe formetr states that lie "was one of the thrtee per'sons dressedC~ In woman's attire, and haid a black Inlatie wr'appad about Ils head, through tie top of which could be seen locks of htair." Captain (I. W.- Lawton, of the F~ourIth litebigan cavalry, states explicitly, fat.a Davis, in aciditiotn to his full soit of Conftederate grey, had on1 "a lady's water piroof cloak, gathered at the waist, with a shawl drawnl over the head, and carrying a till pail." Colonel Pritchard says' in hIs olhioihl report, that ho receIved fromt Mrs. Davis, oti board the steamer Clyde, off Por tradiMonroe, a waterptroof cloak, or robe, whlicht was worn by Davis as a disguise, and which wats idetinfed by the mnot who saw It ont hitm at the tImo of the capture. lIe so cuired (the balance of the disguiso the next tday. It consIsts of a shawl, which was ilutitnli~'l in a sImilar mnanneir by hoth ItMrs. Davtis anti the mn.
