Civil War Tunnel Found Near Macon Missouri Edge of Town
Excavations for a sewer in Macon Missouri uncovered a seven foot wide tunnel running northwest to southeast for about a mile beneath the old Haris prison stockade. The tunnel linked a hidden entrance in the stockade to the city edge and likely served as an escape route during guerrilla activity led by Anderson. A druggist saved $9000 during a railroad train hold up by passing money to a sympathetic guard, then escaping with their cash tucked in boots.
