Same image as GLC06999.10 and GLC06999.12, but with corrected caption. With Century Co. and inscriptions. Typed caption on verso reads: "Southwest view of Andersonville Prison, Ga., photographed from the Branch in summer of 1864. Sink or trough in the foreground, and further on are ragged tents, in an out of which are prisoners. Clothing is thrown over their tents. The dark spot in the centre is a hole or well dug by prisoners while attempting to escape by tunnelling. In this distance is the Stockade, with sentry stands and sentries, also the "Sentinel Tree," outside, on the left."
