HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
On Monday afternoon, August 11, Col. J. H. Shanklin arrived in Chillicothe at the head of 150 indifferently armed and mounted Grundy county militia. There were no other Federal forces in the place at the time, and Shanklin had been ordered to its defense. The next morning, upon the arrival of the east bound train from St. Jo- seph, he was informed by the conductor that Poindexter, with eight hundred or one thousand men, had crossed the railroad at Utica just as the train passed. The news was instantly telegraphed to Gen. Ben. Loan, then at Laclede.
It was not then doubted that the object of the raiders was the cap- ture of Chillicothe, and Col. Shanklin proceeded immediately to put the town in a state of defense. He stationed his militia at the best points, collected all the arms and ammunition in the city, and armed the citizens as far as possible. He also sent out scouts and couriers to keep him advised of the movements of the enemy. Two scouts were sent towards Spring Hill, with instructions to go to that place if possible, and bring back word of the force, equipments and course taken by the raiders, so far as the same could be ascertained.
Becoming impatient at the delay in returning of the Spring Hill scouts, but satisfied from other sources of information that Chilli- cothe was not in imminent danger, and that the movement would result in keeping his force between the rebels and the city, Col. Shanklin left Capt. R. F. Dunn, with the city militia and armed citizens, to de- fend the town, and moved with the Grundy militia (part of the 30th E. M. M. ) to Graham's mills, on the Spring Hill road, keeping up communication with the small force left in the city. At Graham's mills the Spring Hill scouts were met, and they informed Shanklin that Poindexter's forces had passed through Spring Hill without mo- lesting any person, and had crossed Grand river and were moving rapidly eastward. Here also a citizen living on the Trenton road re- ported that they had crossed that road still going eastward at a good gait, though both men and horses seemed greatly fatigued.
By this time it was late in the day and Col. Shanklin received a verbal message from Gen. Loan, who, with the greater portion of Col. McFerran's 1st M. S. M., had arrived at Chillicothe from Laclede. This message ordered Shanklin to take such of his militia as were efficiently armed and mounted and join a portion of MeFerran's regi- ment on the Trenton road and pursue Poindexter. Shanklin moved at once and soon came up with MeFerran's men, who to the number of one hundred and seventy-five, were under Lieut .- Col. Woolfolk. The remainder of the 1st M. S. M., under MeFerran himself and

Gen. Loan, returned towards Laclede with a view of intercepting Poindexter, whose direction of march had been learned.
Woolfolk and Shanklin struck the trail of the raiders and followed it all night long, without food or rest. Next morning, learning that . other Federal commands had taken up the pursuit and were between them and Poindexter's forces, the chase was abandoned and Wool- folk and Shanklin returned to Chillicothe.
The Federals pressed on after Poindexter, and on the 13th Guitar overtook him and struck the remnant of his forces on the Mussel fork of the Chariton river, in Chariton county, dealing them the finishing blow. The Confederates were thoroughly dispersed. Many of them were picked up asleep and made prisoners. Some were murdered by the militia, never being given a chance to sur- render, and a few killed after they had surrendered. Poindexter's raid was an ignominious and disastrous failure.
About the first of September Col. Poindexter was himself cap- tured by the enrolled militia of Randolph, after having wandered alone through the woods for several days. Gen. Merrill at first intended shooting him, but Gen. Schofield ordered him brought to St. Louis for trial. While in Gratiot street prison he wrote an open letter, which was widely published, declaring the war of the Southern Confederacy a failure, and calling upon his former asso- ciates to accept the situation and live in loyalty to the State and United States Governments. This letter may have been the price . of his liberty, for he was eventually released and allowed to return home.
THE FATE OF THREE CONFEDERATES.
On the 18th of August one of Poindexter's men, a prisoner named Wm. Simms, of Macon county, was shot at Chillicothe. He had been taken prisoner at Bottsville and brought to Chillicothe with others. His body was found in a ditch southwest of town and an inquest was held over it by Coroner R. B. Williams. Sergt. R. Y. Ford, of the militia, testified that he recognized the body as that of Simms ; that he was captured August 13, and on the night of the 15th had escaped. The belief was general, however, that the prisoner had been taken out and willfully shot. The body was decently buried at the expense of the county.1
In August, about the time of Poindexter's raid, John Bailey, who

lived in the southern part of this county, was taken from his bed at home, carried over into Carroll county, and shot. No further particu- lars of this case have been learned, save that the killing was done by some militia from Breckinridge.
Jesse P. Clark was killed north of Spring Hill, on the 26th of August, by a party of militia. He had formerly lived at Princeton, in Mercer county, and it is said was on his way to the Confederate army when killed. He was shot in the head and back. An inquest on his body was held by Esq. R. B. Moss. One account is to the effect that Clark had been with Poindexter, and was trying to get South. The particulars of his killing have not been learned.
JOHN BLACKBURN.
Sometime in the fall of this year John Blackburn was killed near his home, in the northwestern portion of Jackson township, by a detachment of Capt. Turner's company of enrolled militia under Lieut. Hartgrave. The militia were in search of Blackburn, and coming upon him he sought to escape, when he was shot.
CAPT. JOE KIRK AND HIS OPERATIONS.
The operations of Capt. Joseph B. Kirk with his company of Confed- erate partisans in this county deserve mention in this history, as inei- dents of local interest and as composing a part of the war history of the county which ought not to be omitted.
After a brief term of service in the army of Gen. Price, south of the Missouri, Capt. Kirk returned to his home, in Jackson township, with a commission authorizing him to recruit for the Confederate service. A man of middle age, with the attributes of undoubted personal bravery, sagacity, tact and presence of mind, and withal of integrity and good character, Capt. Kirk at once had the confidence of the people of Confederate sympathies, and in a short time he had gath- ered about him quite a company of well armed and mounted men, some of whom were as desperate fighters as the war produced.
Kirk's plan of operations seemed to contemplate the holding of Jackson township, or the country between the forks of Grand river, as Confederate ground, into which the Federal troops must not enter. In the summer of 1861, as elsewhere noted, his notices to the Federals warning them not to trespass on his dominions were numerously posted, and he persistently refused to go South with his company, but remained to make good his warnings, and as he said, to protect his friends. His operations were chiefly of the par-

tisan ranger style of warfare-the forming of ambuscades, sudden waylays, surprises, and predatory incursions and foragings on the enemy. While under commission in the Confederate service, and perhaps entitled to be called Confederates, yet, from their usual style of warfare, Kirk and his men were called bushwhackers.
In the fall of 1861 the bushwhackers drew the first blood. A band of them under John Blackburn waylaid and fired upon Lieut. E. West, of Daviess county, an officer of the 23d Missouri, who was on his return to his regiment with some recruits. Of this incident, the Lieutenant, now deputy sheriff of Daviess county, says : -
I started from my home, in Bancroft, on Sunday morning, October 13, 1861, with six recruits, a driver and myself ( making eight in all ), in one wagon to go to Chillicothe, and from there to St. Louis by rail. When we got within about three miles of Spring Hill and were just passing out at the eastern border of what we called Black's Grove, and immediately on entering the prairie (sec. 24), a band of bushwhackers arose from their concealment, all in line, about 15 steps from us and commenced firing upon us. We were all unarmed which fact their leader, John Blackburn, knew, for he had talked with us not more than two hours before, and knew we had no arms with us. When the firing commenced five of the recruits jumped out of the wagon and ran through some high weeds to make their escape. Only two of them were badly wounded ; Ransom Shores received two bad wounds and Jack Duncan four. The driver, John Roe, one recruit, John Shire, and myself remained with the team and were all wounded, the driver slightly, Shire severely in the head, and I received four severe wounds. All eventually recovered. *
The year following a band of bushwhackers waylaid another lot of recruits going to Chillicothe, under the leadership of Joseph Conkling, at the northwestern border of the same grove and half a mile from where we were fired on. Many persons get the two occurrences mixed.
By the early spring of 1862 Kirk and his men had become quite notorious throughout this county and the eastern part of Daviess, and had given the Federals no little trouble. They defied all attempts at capture and frequently fired on small parties of their pursuers. A thorough familiarity with the country, and the fact that nearly every citizen was not unfriendly towards them greatly facilitated their move- ments, and they kept the Federal forces in the country in a constant state of uneasiness and annoyance. At last a plan was matured by Lieut .- Col. A. M. Woolfolk, of the 1st M. S. M., for their capture or dispersion.
At 10 o'clock on the night of May 24, 1862, Col. Woolfolk left Chillicothe with Capt. Ballenger's company (G) and a detachment
786
HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
of Capt. Peery's (K) for the Spring Hill country. At the same time Capts. McGhee and Folmsbee with their companies (A and B) left Breckinridge for the same destination. The two detachments intended to co-operate as soon as they reached the enemy's country.
The expedition was fairly successful. Col. Woolfolk's battalion succeeded in capturing Joe Kirk, John Cooper, Jr., and James Hale. The detachment from Breckinridge, under Adjt. Doyle, captured Charles Cooper. Three horses and three revolvers were also taken. Some days previously a number of horses had been taken from Union men in Jackson township, and Kirk's and Cooper's men were accused of having taken them.
Kirk was taken to Breckinridge and confined in a railroad car with other prisoners. One night he succeeded in cutting a hole in the floor of the car and through this made his escape. In 24 hours he was again in the saddle.
On the 5th of August about twenty men of Co B, 1st M. S. M., under Lieut. J. T. Goodbrake, and about twenty-five enrolled militia, attacked Kirk's and Capt. Frank Davis' com- panies at Diamond, in Daviess county, and defeated them. Five of the Federals were wounded, and some six or eight of the Confederates. The next day the Federal militia captured a young man named Thomas Hicklin, whose home was in this county, five miles west of Spring Hill, and who had been with Kirk in the fight the day before. Be- cause he refused to give the names of his comrades or betray their rendezvous, the officer in command had him cruelly shot to death. No soldier of Rome or Sparta ever died braver. He unhesitatingly refused to purchase his life on the terms offered, and calmly facing his executioners died without a tremor of fear or a murmur of pro- test. Before he was shot he wrote a few lines to his widowed mother and two sisters, but the militia officer tore up the paper. The place of his execution was in Daviess county, 25 miles from his home, but his two young sisters recovered his body and bore it to the family cemetery for final interment.
The same day, or the next, Daniel Hale, a brother-in-law of Joe Kirk, was killed in a cane patch, where he was in hiding. This was west of Spring Hill. The killing was done by the same detachment that killed young Hicklin, but while the latter's body was treated with some respect, being decently buried, the body of Dan. Hale was shown shameful indignity.
After the Diamond fight Kirk returned to Jackson township. He refused to follow off Poindexter when the latter came into the Spring
787

Hill country, but continued to fight on his native heath. About the 17th of August he captured five Union men, citizens of Jackson town- ship (some of whom belonged to the militia, and had come here from Chillicothe on leave ), at W. G. Eads' residence, in Daviess county. This was on Sunday, and the following Tuesday a part of Kirk's com- pany, under Lieut. David Martin, bushwhacked some twenty of the enrolled militia on Hicklin's branch, northwest of Spring Hill. The militia were returning to Chillicothe from Grundy county, and some of them were in a wagon. One militiaman named Joseph Couk- lin was killed and another named Thomas was mortally wounded. The remainder scattered in every direction. The bushwhackers suf- fered no loss. Kirk himself denounced Martin's conduct on firing on the Federal detachment.
At this time Kirk was endeavoring to secure an exchange of pris- oners with the Federals of Chillicothe, and had sent in one man that he held -J. B. Weaver - with a note to Lieut. Turner, demanding the release of two of his men whom the Federals had previously captured. Kirk threatened that unless these men were returned to him he would shoot two of the militiamen in his hands the next morning at 9 o'clock. One of the men demanded was sent to Spring Hill, but the other was wounded and could not be sent. Kirk refused to receive the man sent him.
Matters were becoming serious for the two Federal prisoners in Kirk's hands, when on Tuesday evening Col. Shanklin, sent a force of militia, out from Chillicothe towards Spring Hill. In the van of the militia rode William Hale, Sr., Kirk's father-in-law, and his son, who had been made prisoners, and were used as hostages for the safety of Weaver and Marion Hicks, the two militiamen.
. Col. Shanklin says : "The night after Turner's report of Kirk's capture of Hicks, my headquarters at Chillicothe were visited at mid- night by a young lady from the forks of the river, who claimed to be a rebel sympathizer, but a friend of Hicks. She said unless Kirk's wrath was appeased in some way, he would cause Hicks to be killed. I immediately issued the necessary orders to give the people of the forks to understand that if Hicks was killed - and whether he was or not, if Kirk's band was longer harbored and fed in the forks-I would make the whole country between the two rivers a wilderness, and we would call that peace! The next morning I sent out two or three companies," etc.
Kirk had moved down from his position on the Doss farm to the Indian hill, from whence his scouts saw the Federals approaching
788
HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
with the two Hales conspicuously in front. Seeing that he was out- witted, knowing that if he harmed his prisoners his relatives would be killed, Kirk retired, and the same night released Marion Hicks unconditionally.
Not long afterward Kirk crossed Grand river with his company and took up a position on the east bank of the river, in the Van Winkle bend, about four miles northwest of Chillicothe. Learning of his presence, Col. Shanklin sent Capt. Spickard with his and Capt. Win- ters' companies, of Grundy, and Capt. Turner's, of Livingston, all enrolled militia, from Chillicothe to attack him. Bursting suddenly upon the bushwhackers the militia routed them completely, driving them across the river, and capturing a number of horses, arms, etc. One of Kirk's men, Joseph Allen, was drowned in swimming the river. Some of the horses captured were identified as belonging to certain Union men of Jackson township; five had been taken from James Hicks, Sr.
Thereafter the movements of Kirk and his men were practically insignificant. By reason of the presence of an overwhelming force of his enemies he was forced to give up the forks, and went south of the Missouri. Here he was desperately wounded, and obliged to leave the service. Bold and shrewd .as ever, he made his way back to this county, and then went to California, where he remained until after the war. He is now a quiet, well respected citizen of the county.
ORGANIZATION OF THE ENROLLED MILITIA.
July 22, 1862, when Cols. Porter, Poindexter, Hughes, Coffee, Cockrell, Shelby and other Confederate leaders were slashing about through the State at the head of their commands, and when all Mis- souri was swarming with Confederate recruits, Gov. Gamble issued an order for the organization " of the entire militia of the State into companies, regiments and brigades," for the purpose of " putting down all such marauders, and defending the peaceable citizens of the State."
This order of Gov. Gamble's, supplemented by one of similar tenor from Gen. Schofield, had a most wonderful effect in creating soldiers. It brought into partially active service in this State, on the Federal side and under the Federal banner, many thousands of men, and it drove into the Confederate or rebel service fully ten thousand other men who had vowed from the first that if they were forced to take up arms they would fight for " the South."
The 65th regiment of enrolled Missouri militia was organized in the
789
HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
early fall of 1862, and to this regiment four companies from Livings- ton county were attached ; the six others were from Carroll. The field officers were John B. Hale, colonel; Richard F. Dunn and, A. J. Swain, lieutenant-colonels ; J. J. Wall, F. M. Bedford and George Deigle, majors ; O. J. Kirby, adjutant ; C. V. Mcad, quartermaster, and Charles Heidel, surgeon. The Livingston companies were offi- cered as follows : -
Co. G was made up of men from Greene and Mound town- ships chiefly. Its officers were first commissioned September 4, 1862, and all the companies were mustered out of service March 12, 1865. Capt. Thomas H. Reid was captain of Co. G during its term of service. First lieutenants, Peter Ludwig, till May 20, 1864, then Robert Harrison. Second lieutenants, Joseph T. Halleck, till May 20, 1864, then Ashford A. Stone.
Co. H was from Chillicothe. The first captain was R. F. Dunn, promoted to lieutenant-colonel November 3, 1862, then Robert S. Moore. First lieutenants, A. J. Swain, promoted to lieutenant-colonel October 5, 1863, then John Desha. Second lieu- tenants, Robert S. Moore, promoted to captain October 30, 1862, then Hardin R. Wright.
Co. I was. from Spring Hill and Jackson township. Captain, Henry H. Turner from September 30, 1862 to 1864. First lieutenant, Henry H. Turner from July 28 to September 30, 1862; then G. B. Lyon to September 25, 1863; then Lemuel Hargrave. Second lieu- tenant, David Gibbs ; served in 4th Provisional regiment from April 23 to November 22, 1863.
Co. K was from Fairview township and south of Grand river. Captain, Wm. Barnes, from September 27, 1862; served as captain of Co. K, 4th Provisional, from April 23 to November 22, 1863. First lieutenant, Drury N. Mathews. Second lieutenant, J. H. H. Kincaide.
It is proper to say of the Livingston county enrolled militia that the service they rendered the Union cause from first to last was very important, and that their conduct was uniformly good. They obeyed promptly every demand upon them for their services, and often made sacrifices in doing so. Their service was arduous, dan- gerous and peculiarly unpleasant. To be compelled to war on many of their old neighbors and former friends was certainly not agreeable, and this they were compelled in many instances to do. To attack the bushwhackers in their chosen haunts was certainly perilous, and their long, hard rides and marches were always exhaustive.
790
HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
The outrages perpetrated by certain of the militia stationed in this county may not be laid at the doors of the enrolled militia of Livingston, except in few cases. They were nearly always the work of men from other counties. Savage fighters there were among the Livingston men - men who did not make war a pastime, but there were the merest few who were murderers and robbers. In at least two instances men were dishonorably discharged from the service for conduct that would have been winked at by the officers of other militia organizations. The writer has been assured by many persons of former Confederate sympathies that the uniform conduct of the home militia was altogether as good as might have been expected ; and the fact that many of the ex-members of the E. M. M. yet reside in the county and are among its best and most respected citizens, seems corroborative of these statements.
But as to the conduct of certain of the militia of other counties, it is perhaps best to pass it by without comment, since the war has been over for twenty-one years, and by-gones of this kind are not pleasant subjects for either discussion or reflection.
