Rebellion Record: a Diary of American Events: Poetry and Incidents., Volume 5. (ed. Frank Moore), chapter 130 (search)
A rebel Bible Inscription.--A traitor named Cunningham was, last year, pastor of the Taylor-Street Methodist Church.
Before leaving he wrote the following in the Sunday-school Bible:
Uncle Sam--born July 4, 1776.
Died July 4, 1861, aged 85 years. Peace to his ashes.
And the bar strangled muslin, no more shall it wave, O'er the land of the Phree nor the home of the slave — or any other man.
On the opposite page was written:
Confederate States of America--born, 1861--died, never. --Cincinnati Commercial.

12. the Ravages of bushwhackers.
Murfreesboro, Feb. 15, 1864.
Bushwhackers continue to keep the country in a high state of excitement.
They are going about with their hand raised against every body, and every body's hand raised against them.
As usual, murder, robbery, and spoils is their ambition.
These bandits are to be heard of on every side.
On the tenth instant, a band of thirty bushwhackers, under command of Cunningham and Davis, two notorious villains, attacked a supply train belonging to the sutler of the Fourth Michigan, between Fayetteville, in this State, and Huntsville, Alabama, and robbed him of his entire stock, which is said to have been worth two or three thousand dollars. A short time afterward, Lieutenant Robinson, with a squad of the Chicago Board of Trade battery, (on their way to Nashville,) came up, and an exciting chase commenced.
The bushwhackers, who were mounted on fleet horses and well armed, escaped, and brought with them most of their booty.
