Post Civil War Letter Letter from Elijah P. and Louisa Jane Younger Crowley to Isham and Elizabeth Medlin Crowley: Greenville, Clay County, Mo. August the 2, 1866 Dear Mother and Father, Brothers and Sisters: I once more embrace this opportunity of writing to you to let you no that we are on the land among the living and our health is tolerable good at this time except myself. I am just getting over a spell of sickness. I was confined to bed three weeks. My hert is not good but I do hope that when these lines reach you they will find you all well and doing well for it has been a long time since we have had the pleasure of writing to each other. We have seen and felt a great many hard trials since this most cruel and unlhoy war commenced. Doubtless you have heard that my dear and lovely boy Dock as we always cauled him was murdered shortly after he came back to Missourie by a pack of those thieves and murderers called feds for that was their business whenever they thought the had the chance. He came home on tuesday night the 28 of March 1865 which was very unexpected to us for we told him if he ever got to Texas to stay there until the war ended, but I expect he wanted to see us and no what had become of us again. He was at home three times, tuesday night, thursday night and friday night. He went to tries to get away, for the feds was after them and had killed too of the young horses that day. On saturday night he and James Charley was taken prisoner as they was going through Smithville. They kept them there till late Sunday evening. They told them they was going to take them to Ridgely and try them. They went about a mile and a half, took them out in the woods and shot them and left them laying there. An old man heared their groans and went next morning to hunt them and found them and made his too little boys bury them. We heard that they were killed we got a union man to go and find about it. We then had a coffin made and sent for him and brought him home on friday and buried him at Bethel Church on saturday the 2 day of Aprile and I do hope and pray that he is better off than his murderers ever will be and if they do not meet with justice in this world, they will be sure to in the world to come. I have his tintype that is dear to me. He had it taken and gave it to me before he left home. We have also got the little gray mare that he left home on. Perhaps you have heared him speak of her. He called her Kate. We all think a great deal of her. We would not part with her for no mention on his account. He told us he was with you all and how kind and good you was to him. I hope the Lord will bless every one that was good and kind to him while he was gone. He professed religion several years ago and joined the Methodist Church. I hope he had not forgotten it. He was a good and kind boy to us all and beloved by all. His acquaintance Robert Ellington professed religion last fall and joined the church. He is a good soldier and he had a spell of typhoid fever last winter and came very near dying. He lay ___ weeks before he could set up. We had a serious time of sickness in our families at that time. There was five down at the same time there was fever. Nancy, Elizabeth with rhumatism of the heart. The doctor said she was liable to die at any time. There was several weeks we had to set up with them but our neighbors was good to come and set up with us but thank the Lord they all got well by the help of a good doctor that had practised in the Confederate Army, ever since the war began. Our friends and relatives are all well as far as I no. Uncle Travis Finley was here yesterday he is well. He had been down to James P. Crowleys a few days ago. They was all well perhaps you heared that James had lost his wife and was married again. He married Miss Thude _____, and Margaret Crowley was married last spring to a Mr. Hugh Fields.

The radicals has the rule. We look for bad times at the next election, but the people are determined to change policy. There is a large majority of Johnson men in this state, if they can vote.
