The Daily Dispatch: September 6, 1861., [Electronic resource], How I fell in love. (search)
Hon. Jefferson T. Martin, recently United States Marshal for the Western district of Virginia, and now holding the same office under the Confederate Government, arrived in Richmond yesterday afternoon on the Danville train.
He has always been a strenuous advocate of the cause of the South, and was peculiarly objectionable to the Lincolnites in the Panhandle, where he resides.
He came by a most circuitous route.
A strict watch being kept upon his movements, he had to start Northward, taking no baggage with him. When he arrived at Steubenville, Ohio, north of Wheeling, he took the train for Columbus, and thence went through Indiana, and down to Jeffersonville; thence recrossed the Ohio river, and came through Louisville, Nashville, and so on to Richmond.
A Gentleman direct from Wheeling, who arrived here yesterday, reports that "Governor" Peirpoint is constantly arresting suspected Secessionists, and sending them to Camp Carlile, near that city; that some personal property belonging to John Knote, Esq., who is now in this section of the State, which had been sent out to West Alexander, was there stopped by a mob and returned to Wheeling; that the trunks of Jefferson T. Martin, Esq., C. S. Marshal, also here, had been seized and their contents confiscated; and in short, that a general reign of terror prevails there, the Southern men being afraid of imprisonment, and the bogus Governor and his minions and supporters ridiculously fearful of the advance of Lee and other rebels.
