Mr. Moore:

The following is taken from the link provided below:

Street replied on June 4 that the men, who belonged to the 12th Michigan, were shot while trying to escape and turned the matter over to General Ruggles. Ruggles wrote Smith on June 6 that he was having the case investigated, that he did not like Smith's prejudging of the case, and was therefore having four prisoners from Smith's command placed in irons. (18)

The final disposition of the Kesterson-Robinson case is not to be found in the records and it is probable that the only result was a deepening of the bad feelings between the Yankees and Street's men. In August the former took matters into their own hands; Street reported on the 24th that in the course of an attack upon an enemy forage train on the Ripley-Pocahontas road Private John Carraway of Captain White's cavalry and **Private Moses Crisp of Street's company** were captured, taken to the bridge, and deliberately shot (another account says that they were tied to trees and shot). Ruggles reported the case to General Lee, advising him that two Federal prisoners, W. P. Monterey and W. H. Beasley, were being held as hostages until the case should be investigated. Lee wrote Ruggles on September 16 that he thought retaliation was necessary, but as in the former case there is no record of any final disposition.(19) In all probability the accounts were merely allowed to stand as balanced.
