The last tragedy of the war. [from the New Orleans, La., Picayune, January 18, 1903.]
Execution of Tom Martin at Cincinnati, by the order of General Hooker. By Captain James Dinkins.
During General Hood's campaign into middle Tennessee, in November, 1864, a young cavalryman by the name of Thomas Martin, whose home was in Kentucky, decided to steal away and pay his family a visit.
The army passed within fifty miles of his home, and he doubtless thought he would be able to visit his parents and get back before being missed.
Soon after his arrival at home, however, the Federals made him a prisoner and charged him with being a guerrilla.
He was sent to Cincinnati and confined in a cell.
Not long afterwards he was brought before a court-martial and convicted of having been a guerrilla and sentenced to be shot.
Tom Martin was a mere boy, and was illiterate, unable to read or write, but he protested his innocence and insisted that he was a regular Confederate soldier.
