The only report I was able to find—and it has been a while—was a retelling of Snyder's talk with Ripley in his Vermont General: The Unusual Experiences of Edward Hastings Ripley. Perhaps this report is of record. I'm going to think about where it might be, if it is still extant.

That fits exactly what I was looking for. Also, attached to that listing was his Civil War record in the CSA Engineers. I don't really trust that, but I will use it until I can prove otherwise.(03-15-2015 10:51 PM)SSlater Wrote: This is for anyone working on Harney.. Sarah, bravo to you! Some years back Dr. James O. Hall and I spent time and money trying to track Harney down. Upon his release from Elmire he did state that his home was "New Orleans," but later said, "Virginia." I'll have a look as well. Been writing other books but am so glad to see your posts! |
