From the Richmond Sentinel, 5/26/1864

Put in the Castle. – Nicholas Carroll was on Tuesday, put into Castle Thunder as a deserter from Col. Danforth's militia regiment.

On the same day, F. M. Grant, a New Yorker, was put into the Castle for refusing to take up arms, and for saying he didn't care whether the Yankees took the city or not.

Yesterday, P. Brown, a gas fitter, was arrested for precisely the same reasons as Grant, and put into the same place for safe keeping.

These parties were arrested by order of Capt. Wm. A. Charters, Provost of the Reserve Forces.
