Interesting Visit

Quote:I am wondering how many of the "Raiders" were alive in 1906 including Rev. Cameron.

Lt (later General) Bennett Young died in 1919. It was he, who at 20-21 years of age, instigated the Saint Alban's Raid. He was an exceedingly interesting man - captured and tried for the raid who was later promoted to general. A movie entitled "The Raid" was produced in 1954 starring Van Heflin. His book, Confederate Wizards of the Saddle concerns his membership in John Hunt Morgan's unit. I checked, but no mention of Sara Slater. Movie is available for download from Youtube and the book is available on Internet Archive.
