"But learning that this was but the advance guard of Gen. Price's large army, and that resistance would be useless, the home guards surrendered as prisoners of war. These prisoners were quartered at the court house and closely guarded, but the commissioned officers were pr.roled. Gen. Shelby, with his command, entered about sundown on the above mentioned day. Gen. Price and his staff made their headquarters at the city hotel, on Morgan street. On Tuesday, the I3th day of October, the prisoners were marched in front of the city hall, ranged in line, and Gen. Price made them a speech, and gave orders for their parole^ on the condition, that if they were ever found with arms against the south, they would be shot."
I don't know WHERE on Morgan St or what if anything is there at this time. On page 117 of the same book, a reference is made to Capt Shoemaker who was on parole and going to his residence at the corner of Central Ave and Sixth St. from the residence of Capt John Porter.
