The Daily Dispatch: August 7, 1863., [Electronic resource], Carrying a concealed arm. (search)
Carrying a concealed arm. --A youth clothed as a soldier, and giving his name as S. D. Roberts, was arrested in this city yesterday on suspicion of desertion from some Confederate company and the use of an artifice to avoid detection. He carried an empty sleeve and was apparently deprived of one arm. But Mr. E. A. Smith ascertained on examination that he had a sound arm closely hid away under his under-clothing. He had been passing himself off as an object of charity, has obtained one or two contributions from some of our citizens, and Mr. Smith was engaged in raising more money for him when his suspicions were aroused.
