Volume 2 by John McElroy]@TWC D-Link book Volume 2 13/15 I was acting in this capacity when the six raiders -- "Mosby," (proper name Collins) Delaney, Curtis, and--I forget the other names--were executed. I believe that I was the first that conveyed the intelligence to them that Confederate General Winder had approved their sentence. As soon as Wirz received the dispatch to that effect, I ran down to the stocks and told them. I have not heard from him for a number of years until reading your correspondent's letter last evening. It is the only letter of the series that I have seen, but after reading that one, I feel called upon to certify that I have no doubts of the truthfulness of your correspondent's story. |
