Hiram Grinsted

In read the book by Anna Bailey about Parson 12th Texas Cavalry, "Between the Enemy and Texas", she states that in the 1850's an H. L. Grinsted was engaged in running a newspaper in Jefferson, Texas. And that because of a dispute over comments made it that paper a duel between the two almost came to be except that Grinsted did not show up for the duel and the dispute was later settled by a board of Honor.

Was this the same H. L. Grinsted, colonel of the 33rd Arkansas?
