Doctor Morgan, a desperate character..

"...the cavalry was fired into. It is supposed to be a band of guerrillas under Command of a Doctor Morgan, most a desperate character. Our cavalry have been trying to catch him ever since they have been here but thus far Morgan has gave them the slip. It was reported that there was a rebel force of 7000 at Arkansas Post some forty miles from here and that they were marching for this place."
