There he meets Luke, a Union prisoner of war. Luke, a Western Pennsylvania Quaker, takes pity on George, and they quickly become friends and confidants. Together they face brutal prison guards and the grueling task of mining cave soil from which is extracted saltpeter, used in the production of gunpowder.Union blockades of gunpowder and saltpeter into the South have made it necessary for the Confederate Army to acquire its own sources of the valuable commodity from privately-owned caves, some worked by prisoners and slaves. In the process of digging soil deep within the cave, Luke and George accidentally discover a back entrance from which to escape. Unfortunately, they have no knowledge of where to go if they do escape, and no provisions to see them through a long journey to freedom.
