64. the attack on Laclede, Mo.
St. Joseph, Mo., June 24, 1864.
On last Saturday afternoon one of the boldest raids of the season was perpetrated on the town of Laclede, in Linn county, situated on the Hannibal and St. Joseph railroad.
A party of guerrillas, numbering thirty men, all well armed and mounted, entered and commenced shooting and plundering.
They first made for the post-office.
Knowing that the muskets and ammunition of the town company was in there, they took poss which was placed their wounded comrade.
A despatch was sent to Brookfield, informing the militia there of the raid, and asking assistance.
A special train was at once sent up with troops, who, upon arriving, at once started in pursuit.
The raiders were soon overtaken, and found secreted in a grove of timber.
As soon as the militia had poured one volley into them, they scattered in every direction, leaving the hack with their wounded comrade.
The latter died on the way back to Laclede.
