ONE MORE RECAPTURED. - Lieutenant Caustin, of the United States regular army, one of the officers who escaped from the Libby prison in the recent wholesale jail delivery from that establishment, was on Friday recaptured in the neighborhood of New Kent Court House. He was brought back to Richmond on Saturday and re-committed to the Libby.
- The Richmond Whig, February 22, 1864
Interestingly, this would be Lieutenant Manuel C. Causten's 3rd capture.
