A COPPERHEAD CHIEF
Continued from first Page.
all of my money chanced into cold. The ques
tion then was now to pet oat of St. Lome a
man eonld not leave tbo city nor even obtain
work In the city without a certificate that be
bad taken the oath of allegiance. I was not
Come to take the oath and finally devised a
scheme. Going down to the levee 1 met an
bonest Irishman by the name of Murphy. I
cot In with bim, made him drank and bought
hia certificate far J5Q. Beinjr an Irishman my
self, I was not afraid of the name. I went to
the Wedce House and bouzht ahorse for $650
and left town.
When about four miles out I met two younc
ladies and saluted them. They returned the
ealute and I saw that they wore red and white
ribbons around their necks. Turning mv horse
we went to their home together. That ac
quaintance was my starling point in Missouri.
Their father as Lieutenant Colonel Kibble, of
Price's regiment, and tbeir home was the hot
bed of the whole Southern organization in
Korth Missouri.
At midnight that night 162 determined Con
federates met there, insido the Yankee lines,
and within four miles of St. Louis. 2S of them
being commissioned officers. I left the next
morning, going throngh the State on the south
of the river, making my report through the
mail at Pans, 11L
CEAIGOILL'S HOME GUARDS.
GORMAN SAYS HE CONVINCED THEM OF
LOYALTY WITH BEER.
Reckless nnd Wholesale Murder of the
Loyal Dutch Settlers of Warrentou
Forty botdiera Captnred With S10
Worth of Whisky.
My next experiences of interest, continued
the Major, wero in St. Charles county, where
I met with CraigtuH's Dutch Home Guards. At
"Warrenton, while eating dinner, 26 of them
came Into rrrest roe. I showed my certificate
of oath, pleaded Union sentiment, cursed Jef
ferson Davis and the whole .Southern Confed
eracy as an honest Irishman, but it took five
kegs of beer to finally convince them that I
was loyal. The English-speaking people in that
section were usually friend, but the Dutch,
were bitter enemies ef the South.
I learned that Colonel Kibble had a brother
toward Black river. 1 finally reached there,
after swimming two swollen creeks and having
two battles with Craighill's Dutch. I learned
that Colonel Kibble's daughter had married a
sergeant in General Trice's command, and that
these Dutch troops had dragged her from her
bed when she was sick, and had burned the
house on the day previous. When I learned
this I made up my mind to teach the Dutch a
lesson. Taking 62 men I went to Warrenton,
and we killed every Dutchman we met. This
cave Murphy a notorious character, and the
quicker I got out of there the better for all
concerned. I took two men with me. Cumber
land Kibble and John Andrews, and started
through the country.
General Odin Geltarwas at that time com
manding the department of North Missouri,
with headquarters at Columbiaville. He issued
an order that no person should carry fire arms
except those engaged in active service for the
United States Government. The three free
booters, armed to the teeth, mounted on fine
horses and killing every man they met with a
borne guard uniform on, naturally created a
Sensation.
THE TJTILITT OF WHISKT.
That night we ato supper at Charles Prattl
er's, in Columbia county, at the foot of Black
feet ridge- While eating 40 Yankee soldiers
arrived looking for a notorious bushwhacker
by the name of Conway. Kibble and Andrews
escaped, and I have never seen them since. I
pleaded loyalty, said I was alone, and on a pony,
and to show my loyaltv would assist them
in hunting up Conway, who, by the way, had
agreed to meet me at Prattler's that night I
got on Prattler's pony and went with the sol
diers to a corner grocery eight miles away, and
2 milles from Columbiaville. Here I called
for Conway, and insisted that I knew he was
there. A man named Steele was proprietor,
and I gave him $10 and paid for all the whisky
to make the soldiers drunk; then I loaded them
pp with bottles of liquor and started with them
for Columbivnlle. Arrived there I took tbem
at once to General Geltar's headquarters and
said:
"General, I am a loyal Irishman, lour men
toot me prisoner, and to show my loyalty, I
have brought them back to you. If I had not
tbey would have all been killed in their preent
drunken condition." The General thanked me,
became satisfied as to my loyalty and gave me
a pass, with which 1 got away as quickly as
possible, before they recognized me. 1 returned
to Prattler's, where I found my horse and Con
way with 16 men, who xubmitted at once to
mv oraers. We then organized the Paw Paw
militia, and had a fieht near St. Joe with Craig
hill's Dutch, in which Conway lost an arm and I
was shot through the shoulder; nine of the
Dutch being killed.
THE KOLLS OP THE CONFEDEEACT.
I then succeed in getting to Paris, HI., where
Mr. and Mrs. Farrel nursed me back to health,
and I returned to Missouri, then to Richmond,
where I reported to Senator Sims. I was tben
Instructed to return, and given the rolls of the
Confederates in the North 30,000 in Illinois,
12,000 in Missouri, 16.000 in Indiana, 4,000 in
Ohio and 5.000 in Pennsylvania.
On the 10th of January, 1863. 1 went to City
Point and hired as a roustabout on the United
States flag of truce steamboat General Hensell.
I wasto receive $75 a month. I staid six days
fer which the Government still owes me leav
ing the boat at Baltimore. The next morning
I was in Washington, where I met United
States Senator Powell, of Kentucky, deliver
ing to bim a regular commission as Lieutenant
General in the Confederate Army, command
ing all the forces north of the Ohio river, and
with authority to issue commissions. From
bim I obtained a man of the fortifications on
the Potomac river, the number or men between
Washington and the mouth of the river, the
condition of iortifications around Washington
City and other valuable information.
I left for Cincinnati over the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, and was arrested at Bellalre,
being guarded by three Irishmen, John Burhe,
of Pontiac, Mich.; John Doyle, of 321 Sixth
street, Detroit, and another, whose name I
have forgotten. For $10 and a quart of whisky
I bought a Yankee overcoat and got away. I
first went to Columbus. O., where I met George
Zeney, and going 12 miles out of the city, was
introduced to 900 as determined men as ever
shouldered a gun.
THE COPPEEHEADS OP OHIO,
They were the best drilled and best equipped
of any of the Copperhead organizations, and
were sworn Confederate soldiers. I swore them
into service with George Zeney as Colonel.
They afterward did valiant service in the rescue
of General John Morgan from the Ohio peni
tentiary. I went to Cincinnati and met one of
the truest friends the cause ever had. now a
drygoods merchant of that city. He was com
missioned Quartermaster General. Returning
to Washington, I stole a skiff and floated down
the river, then stole a horse and reached Rich
mond safely.
When I reported they wanted me to return,
to which I seriously objected, as my descrip
tion was printed everywhere. The rewards for
my capture were large. I had used a dozen
aliases, and the police and detectives were
sconnng thecountry for me. General Winder
insisted on one more trip. I started, crossing
the Potomac half way between Mathlas' Point
and the mouth of the river. Hailing an oyster
schooner. I paid them 30 to put me on the
Maryland side; went to Washington and Col
umbus, and tben to Cincinnati, where had been
collected S2S6.000 in cash, which was given me.
together with maps and plans in the Ohio
river between the mouth of the Big Sandy and
Louisville I went to Aurora to confer with
Senator Huffman, who bad organized three
regiments one at Aurora andLaurenceburg
one at bevmour and one at Madison and North
Vernon. "I gave him a commission as Major
General in the Confederate army.
THE HOT-BED OF ILLINOIS.
CONFEDERATES DRILLED OPENLY IN
MACONPIN COUNTY.
The Daring Hebel Caught nt Lexington and
Sentenced to be Shot 311st Nnnnle Curd
Clever Plan That Resulted in His
Esczpr.
My next stopping place, said Major Gorman
continuing, was at Springfield, 111., where I met
Judge Dixon, who was at the head of the
movement in Illinois, with a commission as
Major General. He bad great influence, and
afterward, in attempting to release prisoners
at Camp Butler, accomplished more than any
man in Illinois. This atte mpt would have been
successful had it not been for Colonel Shanks'
informing the authorities. He was afterward
killed at Cheyenne by his own men, on account
of this, as I believe.
Going to Carlinville I stopped with JobnD.
White, a wealthy farmer of Maconpln county.
This county only sent 400 soldiers to the Fed
eral Army, and almost every man was a Copper
bead. Here I drilled my men openly, until I
received information that General John M.
Palmer was about to call a regiment of soldiers
to arrest me. I called on General Palmer and
told him that we would fight it to the bitter
end. I was not arrested, and I have talked
with General Palmer since that time, and be
said that he concluded that it was b;st to let
me go, as It would have taken 6,000 men at that
time in that county to arrest me and would
have precipitated the war into the heart of
Illinois. Going to Madison, Ind., where John
T. Moore was in command of the Copperheads,
he told me that everybody was looking for me.
and he assisted me across the river, where I
found a horse. I rode to Christlanburg,
then to Versalles, then to Lexington
CAUGHT AT LAST.
In order to understand snbse quent events we
must go back to August, 1862. At that time
my battalion was with General Erksley Smith,
in the battle of Richmond, Ky., and I was as
sistant provost marshal at Lexington, thus
making many acquaintances. I had also re
mained on the battlefield to bury the dead, im
pressing the services of -citizens, among whom
were four brothers by tbe name of Haley. On
my arrival at Lexington from the northern
trip, I called at the Curd House, which was the
rebel soldiers' headquarters, and Miss Nannie
Curd was the moving spirit among them.
While eating dinner I met Captain Gnynn. of
General Morgan's staff. At that time there
were 4,000 Federal Infantry at Lexington. 2,000
cavalry at Georgetown and 3,000 cavalry at
Frankfort, all under marching orders for Lex
ington. I gave Captain Gwynn this information, and
we parted to meet at Tate's creek ford, four
miles from Richmond, at 11 r. 31. Provided
with a horse and Lieutenant Colonel Riley's
uniform of the Twenty-fifth Michigan, with the
post countersign, obtained through the in
fluence of Miss Nannie Curd, at 8 o'clock I
started for Tate's ford. After crossing the
river I was halted. I gave the countersign,
told them I was Colonel Riley, of the Twenty
filth Michigan.
"Get down. Cantam Gorman, we know you."
said one ot them, and 1 saw that I was in tbe
bands of the Haley brothers. They treated me
kindly, and took me home with them.
SENTENCED TO BE SHOT.
While in a room disrobing, one of tbem
picked up my coat and beard some paper rustle.
He ripped It open and found some maps and a
lot of letters directed to President Davis and
Vice President Stephens. Tben they knew
that they had a prize. Tbe letters were all in
cipher, which I could not read myself. Tbey
furnished me with another suit, and laid
Colonel Riley's uniform, which I bad worn
over my suit, it being too large for me, away.
I was taken back to Lexington, where I was
tried before General Gilmorc, who asKed if 1
could read the letters. I said that I could, and
that saved my life. Instead of having me shot
the next morning at sunrise, he sentenced me
to bo shot on April 7, the trial occurring March
7. I was confined in a dungeon in John Mor
gan's old negro jail on Limestone street, a place
with which, as Provost Marshal, I was thor
oughly familiar. In the dungeon was Charles
Shiver, of Scott's Louisiana Cavalry. At first
we were suspicious of each other, but through
our mutual acquaintance of Miss Nannie Curd
we soon became warm friends.
Our hands and feet were shackled, and then
a chain was fastened from the one which bound
our hands to the one which bound our feet. We
were both to be shot. I began to figure a way
io get out oi mere, anu sent ior f amor Lvnch,
a Catholic priest. Through his influence I suc
ceeded in obtaining a call from Miss Curd. I
told her to have the girls make love to the
guards and sergeants, which they did.
A FILE STABCHED HT A SniKT.
Che obtained bedding apd clothes forme, and
in a few days I found a file starched Inside of
the bosom of a shirt, so that it would not fall
out when the garment was shaken. With this
we cut the rivets on our shackles, and with our
case knives we began the task of cutting out
through the floor. On the 19th of March the
hole was large enough for a man to crawl
through, and wamade our escape that night,
eating a hearty meal at Mrs. Myers, next door
to the jalL We reached Versailles and went
to General Bufora's house before daylight,
running 19 miles during the night. On our way
to this place we found a farmer in the road
resting for the night. Wo stampeded his
horses and, binding him to a tree, left him,
wishing him good luck.
BREAKFAST IN A SKIRT.
HOW THE DAUGHTERS OF DIXIE AS.
SISTEDTHE FUGITIVE.
A Chase of Over n Hundred 9Ille, nnd n
Prisoner Again Elected to tho Michigan
Legislature Settled at Birmingham,
Ala.
At half past i o'clock tbo next morning we
awakened Mrs. JJuford, who was well
acquainted with loth of us, and who had made
many a prayer for the forgiveness of my sins,
expecting me to die on April 7. When she first
saw us she was frightened, but soon rejoiced
and welcomed us most heartily. Will Moore.
tbe overseer, was called, and we went to tbo
far side of the plantation, where we took refuge
under a straw stack.
At 6 o'clock that morning, Mrs. But ord. Miss
Wiley George, Miss Canfleld and Miss Harris
rode out over the plantation on horseback,
finally comlne to the strawstack.and producing
from their long riding skirts the Best breakfast
I ever ate. They had not been gone half an
hour when the section was literally swarming
with Yankee soldiers, looking for us. We had
been traced to Versailles, where all clue had
been lost. That night it rained very hard and
under cover of darkness we left for Frankfort,
where Shivers left me, and I have never seen
him since. I heard that he was killed by Jack
Goodwin's bushwhackers.
I went to Madison, Carlinsville, Springfield.
Aurora, Cincinnati, Columbus and Washing
ton, returning with ponies of the rnTnmttniA.
tions that the Yankees bad captured. I re
turned to Wall's, opposite Madison, and when
going across the river, two soldiers followed
me on tho ferry, which I succeeded in capsiz
ing, throwing the soldiers into the river. I
reached Wall's, where I was given tbe best
horse that I ever rode, and seeing that I was
pursued. I went to the toD of a hill, whem t
had a sharp fight with the Yankees, who
chased me to Christlanburg. where they got
new horses; there to Harrodsburg, where I
was far enough ahead to get a lunch atDr
King's. At a corner grocery I got half a pint
ot whisky, which I gave to the horse, and an
other half-pint, wbich I v3d myself.
A RACE FOE LIFE.
Tho Yankees were again in sight, and tired
as mv horse was I again distanced tbem, cut
the telegraph wires and went on the dead run
for Danville, thence to Lebanon. Six miles
from Lebanon I turned off the pike and rode
up Poke's creek in three feet of water. I out
up at tbe house of old man Prewitt, having run
my horse 1C4 miles, six of which were in the
creek.
The next morning my horse was dead, tho
noblest animal I ever saw. I was taken sick in
tbis house, and while in bed I was captured.
When I became a prisoner the excitement
seemed to cure me, and on tbe train, while
being taken to Cairo, I jumped off while the
train was in motion. I was not serlouily hurt
by tbe jump, and bid out in the woods' until
night, when I stole a horse from a man named
Greer, who, by the way, I have met since and
offered pay for the horse, which he declined.
The next morning I was in Glasgow, where I
received mail and left, crossing the Cumber
land river near Sparta, thence to Tullahoraa,
thence to Knoxville, where I gave my stolen
horse to Miss Mattie Love, and took tbo train
for Richmond. After making my reports I de
clined to return to the North, and again
assumeu commana oi my regiment of sharp
shooters in General Claiborne's brigade, joining
them at Lenoir's station.
AOAIN A PBISONEE.
In October 1863, 1 was taken prisoner, and
confined first on Johnson's Island and tben at
Camp Morton until tho close of the war. I was
three times offered my parole, Governor Ortb,
of Indiana, coming specially to see me at one
time, but I refused to take tbe iron-clad oath.
After tbe war was over I went North and set
tled in Detroit, where I was elected as a mem
ber of tho Michigan Legislature, being defeated
as a candidate for re-election in 1883. I then
came to Birmingham, where I have resided
ever since.
Major Gorman is a well-known citizen
and a man of unquestionable veracity. It
was by accident that your correspondent
learned of bis remarkable history, and with
difficulty that the Major could be induced
to talk about it. The narrative, told in as
few words as possible, brings out some abso
lutely new points in the history of tbe Civil
"War, which are not only of thrilling inter
est, but of great value as well, throwing
light upon tbe secret movements of the Con
federate organizations in the North, a sub
ject heretoiore involved in secrecy.
