Several friends have written
me that Governor Davis has stat
ed in public speeches and private
conversations that [ served in the
Confederate army only one month
and one day, and that he had the
proof of this, and also that had
behaved in discreditable manner
at Prairie Grove. Both of these
statements are untrue. CAPITA in
Bridewell of my county recently
wrote a letter, which has since
been published, which makes a
perfectly correct statement of my
military service, and he calls at
tention in his letter to a resolu-
ton adopted by tho camp of Con-
federate Veterans at Hope, of
which am a member, and with
some of the members of which |
served during the war. sup
posed that the publication of this
letter of Captain Bridewell would
be sufficient to set this untruth at
rest, but l am today informed
that Governor Davis, as late as
last Monday, repeated his state
ment. ....
On June II, 1861, | was mus
tered into the service at Little
Rock in Captain Holmes COM
.pany, which became part of
Bourland's regiment when or
ganized at Searcy. All of the
troops raised at that time were
raised by the state, and about
August that year our entire
command was transferred to and
mustered into the service of the
Confederate government at Poca-
hontas. | went with my regiment

Subsequent to this, when Cap

until the end of the war. After

shall always remember with pride
the fact mentioned by Captain
Bridewel., that, while / was a
private in the ranks, | came
within a very few votes OF being
elected colonel of the regiment;
and it is especially gratifying to
me to remember that the batta-

Whether the muster rolls were

served.
There seems to be no end to
the invention of false statements

time, this has been the case.
Governor Davis shameless
