The Daily Dispatch: July 5, 1861., [Electronic resource], Murder of a soldier in Memphis, Tenn (search)
Murder of a soldier in Memphis, Tenn --The Memphis Appeal, of Tuesday morning last, says: On Sunday afternoon two soldiers of Capt. Jackson's regiment of heavy artillery, now stationed at the fort at the foot of Jefferson street, entered a drinking place near the railroad crossing on the Raleigh road. One of the two, named Owen McCarty, finding that his companion had become helplessly intoxicated, took from him for safe keeping twenty-seven dollars he had about him.

The white man who commanded them promised large reinforcements as soon as they should commence. Twice the affair failed; the third time, from unexpected circumstances, the scheme was found out.--Six of the negroes were hung last Monday, eleven have been sentenced to the penitentiary, and the others returned to their masters after a severe correction. The greatest criminal of all — the miserable white man who had woven the plot of the conspiracy, and enticed the unfortunate blacks to their destruction — was hung last Saturday.--Memphis (Tenn) Bulletin, 1s
