Escape of Mark from Confederate Jail Sparks Cavalry Pursuit
A jail escape unfolds when Souri hides as a prisoner to aid Mark in fleeing. Cavalry is ordered to cross the river to pursue him, aided by a guard's moving chase and local volunteers, while the provost marshal weighs the fate of co-conspirators Jakey and Louri who aided the escape. The siblings are eventually sent home after questioning and a tense decision by the officer. The incident prompts broader searches around Moccasin point and along the Tennessee river.
