Most of the folks there didn&#8217;t want to be involved, they saw it as a rich person&#8217;s war. But when the Confederates came through they would press men into service. And when the Union came through they would press men into service. And then there were the Booger men, guerillas, bushwhackers, thieves and murderers, led by &#8220;Mountain Tom&#8221; Clark. In 1872 Clark confessed to 19 murders and was lynched. One member of the mob remembered Clark say &#8220;No man will ever run over Tom Clark!&#8221; So his body is now buried under Tennessee Street and is supposedly still there today, where he&#8217;s run over by everybody. At least that&#8217;s the folklore. Interesting read. <\/p>\n<p>We grew up hearing sanitized versions of stories like this. <\/p>\n<p>The book has that Due Date card inside, of course. The last time it was stamped was 1995. <\/p>\n<p>I should have made a video about that. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There comes a moment when everyone thinks they can be an artist &#8230; Helium gives up.
