" "Immediate efforts be made for a cessation of hostilities. " An official letter from Maj. Gen. Blunt, Oct. 7th, 1863, in reference- to the massacre at Baxter Springs, Mo. , says : " The. Body of Major Cur- tis, the son of Maj. Gen. Curtis, was found where thrown from his horse, shot through the head, evidently having been murdered after being taken prisoner. " The same was the case with all the wounded, the members of the bantl, the officers' clerks and tlie teamsters. The murderers were a po...rtion of Coppey's and Quantrell's command, disguised by Federal uniforms. About seventy were thus butchered by these worse than fiends.
"Immediate efforts be made for a cessation of hostilities. ''' An official letter from Col. W. R. Penick, dated Independence, Mo. , January 11th, 1863, says: ''Private Johnson, of the artillery, was brought in dead to-day, the fifth murdered the last week. They were all wound- ed and killed afterwards, in the most horrible manner that fiends could devise. ' All were shot in the head, several had their faces fearfully cut, evidently with boot-heels; powder was exploded in one man's ear, and both ears cut off close to the head.
