My eldest brother, C. A. Peddicord, was a member of the "Summer Greys," Company K, Second Tennessee Infantry, mustered in at Richmond, Va., May 14, 1861, and the youngest, C. J. Peddicord, was a member of Ben Hardin Helm's First Kentucky Cavalry. He was taken out of prison at Gallatin, Tenn., during Gen. Payne's reign, and shot near the farm of a Mr. Malone because he refused to guide or inform on his friends. C. A. Peddicord was fatally wounded in an encounter at the close of the war with three ex-Federal soldiers at Glasgow, Ky., and died near Glasgow Junction, where both lie buried at the family grounds of the "Old Bell Tavern."

Was C. J. Peddicord the victim of a war crime?
