The Daily Dispatch: May 26, 1862., [Electronic resource], Hon. Jere Clemens. (search)
Hon. Jere Clemens. --The numerous admirers of this gifted Alabamian will learn with feelings of deepest regret that he has forsaken the Confederate cause, and given in his allegiance to the Lincoln Government. He was in Huntsville at the time of its capture by the Yankees, and made no effort to escape. Only a few weeks after their arrival he became very intimate with the commanding General, and now goes about the streets representing the Southern cause in its worst light, and endeavorinFederal cause. So far he has only found four of the citizens of Huntsville who were so destitute of principle and honor as to link their destiny with the destroyers of our homes and our peace. This comes from a source entitled to the highest credit. We copy the foregoing from the Atlanta Commonwealth, of the 20th inst. When we consider those long accession proclivities of Mr. Clemens, and his apparently earnest labors in behalf of the Confederacy, the statement seems almost incredible.
