Anecdote of a Civil War era rider in Tennessee
A humorous Civil War anecdote recounts a lone horseman halted by hostile partisans in East Tennessee. Questioned about politics and loyalties, he insists he is neutral and seeks medicine for his ailing daughter. After harsh interrogations and mistreatment, he endures further capture attempts, ultimately escaping toward Morristown amid pursuit and renewed threats.
