Camp Douglas

“It is a place long forgotten, a site of calculated humiliation and torture on a scale unknown in American history. Six thousand dead, all victims of a systematic and carefully orchestrated policy of retribution ordered by the highest government authorities are a mute testimony to the worst of human nature.
“This place is a Union prisoner of war camp near Chicago, labeled by one observer as an ‘extermination camp.’ What happened here resulted in an entire city being put in lockdown. This is an American nightmare, a forgotten place called Camp Douglas, named by its victims as ‘Eighty Acres of Hell.’
“In this long forgotten cemetery at Oakwoods in Chicago 6,000 graves give mute testimony to the price of Union. But these are not Northern soldiers who perished on Southern battlefields, but thousands of Confederate victims of Union cruelty, neglect and unprecedented inhumanity. They represent victims of the worst in Union prison camps. While many know of the horrors of the Rebel prison camp at Andersonville (Ga.) who has ever heard of the Union’s Camp Douglas?” – History Channel, “Eighty Acres of Hell,” opening narration.
The camp officials contracted with an unscrupulous undertaker who sold some of the bodies of Confederate prisoners to medical schools and had the rest buried in shallow graves without coffins, states historian George Levy who wrote “To Die in Chicago: Confederate Prisoners at Camp Douglas, 1862-1865.” Some bodies reportedly were dumped in Lake Michigan only to wash up on its shores. Levy states that bodies may have ended up in the lake because they were initially buried in shallow graves along the shore.
