Description:Excerpt from An Escape That Did Not Set Me Free: A by-Product of Morgan's Raid; A Paper Read Before the Ohio Commandery of the Loyal Legion, April 7, 1915 There were dangerous possibilities in the audacious undertaking. And those who gave it promise, and could have made the promise reality, those fire-eating Knights. Refused the hot diet when it was offered, and lured the daring invaders to their doom. And yet, thothe collapse of the greater campaign was spectacular, and tho Morgan lost an unequaled cavalry division to Bragg, it cannot be shown that he did not achieve more to disturb and distract Rosecrans and thus to cover Bragg's retreat across the Tennessee, than would have justified the loss Of an army corps. But with such a question we have naught to do; oa with a personal incident in the Raid. Though robbed of its possibilities and become a frenzied effort to recross the Ohio River, to the people of the invaded states, unused to actual warfare, the Raid assumed exaggerated proportions and possibilities. Stretching three miles along the roads, Morgan's cavalry seemed to their affrighted vision like a conquering army with banners. Indiana put and Ohio militia into the field. Hobson and Duke were hot on Morgan's trail with more than cavalry from the front; Burnside had the nucleus Of an army corps in Cincinnati. The atmosphere was Vibrant with excite ment and apprehension. The Raid was the one topic of conversa tion, the one subject of interest.
