Civil War Journal "The officer of the day… sent guards to quell and take the imposters and when they went to take 3 or 4 of them, their Co[mpany] pitched on to the guards and about whipped them out. Then the officer of the day come up and drew his sword…and bid the rascals walk off. Which they done through fear of being run through with the officers sword or the guards bayonet." -- L.
