Whiting and the Draft in Iowa Copperhead Era
A detailed expose recounts Charles E. Whiting’s alleged disloyal war views, drafting avoidance, and alleged profiteering from bounty funds. It cites affidavits from Moses Adams, Edward Winegar, and others alleging anti Union sentiment, rejoicing at Lincoln’s death, and calls for Nebraska refuge. It also details a 1864 proclamation to curb Copperhead exodus and Whiting’s controversial labor and railroad lobbying.
