TOM BUKKE'S ' MINERVA.
ficw I'lutc Tlim * .
Amonp the crowds of refugees that
poured Into Gump Robinson during the
early months of 1832 were many union
men from the mountains of southeastern
Kentucky , Ono of thoso. nnn , Tom
Burke o Wayne county , I distinctly
romomhor , nor should I huvo footton
him hud not subsequent events served
to impress lilin on my mind.
Tom Burke wits n flno typo of the
Cumberland mnuntivlncor. When I
first mot him , just before the b.vttlo of
Mill Springs , I had boon in cnmp ubout
twenty-four houra. Although ho had
oiiliBfjd , ho still were hla butternut
suit , und carried the old-fashioned
hunting I'iilo ho nid brought with him
from homo. Ho Blood fully 0 feet 2
inches in height , was straight ua the
bAt 10 ! of Ills own rifle , ivnd bore lilmsolf
with the gruco nnd OHSO of nn unongod
tiger. The long block hitir nnd heavy
bl iick eyebrows , with woll-sot , bluish-
gray oyca , told of n Coltlo ancestry thut
had not changed its typo after a century
and u half In the mountains of Virginia
and Kentucky.
Burke was strikingly handsome , and ,
unlike most handsome men , ho seemed
to bo unaware of the fact. Ho was re
ticent , low-spoken , for a mountaineer ,
and ho differed further from them In
that ho neither used tobacco nor drunk
whisky ; but ho swore , not to omphusUo
W9 l4nHu"Bp fop 1 > ° "over got excited.
Ho had learned to awoar with his flrel
lisping , and his profanity Honoured to
bo as oasyand unconeclousna his breath
ing. 'loin Burke wns also very religious ,
at least Iio gave mo that impression
when I hoard him talking In.n . ciunp
jirayor mooting soon uf top our llrat moot-
Physical beauty always attracts the
young. I suppose that is why Burke
drew mo to him from the flrat , for I was
llltlo moro tlmn a boy nt the tlmo. Wo
bccnmo friends nt once , < xnd the day
nftor our first mooting ho took mo toono
Btdo , nnd , nftor confessing to mo , in n
ehnmo-facad way , that ho "didn't know
nothln' 'bout rondln' nor wrltln' , " ho
said :
"I wnnt pownhful bad to write a letter
to n gnl down to Rock Crik Rock Crlk ,
that's down In Way no county ICtiintuck ,
whur I wns rlz. "
"Your swootlionrtV" 1 nskod , ns I prepared -
pared to wrlto.
"Wnal , not to brng on. Her nnmo'a
Sis Ferguson. "
This nnd much moro of the saino kind
wns snid with a largo admixture ol
onths , nnd in n voice so low AS to ninko
profanity Boom moro like praying tlmn
swearing. I recall that I wrolo the letter -
tor , and ns postal communication" ,
never very certain In the mountains ,
were entirely suspended , Burke had to
depend upon his frlonds among the
scouts to got his letters thiough.
Tom Burke , r.ftor failing to bo at
tached to the First Kentucky cavalry ,
in which ho had a cousin nuinod Hudson
Burkt1 , was mustcrod Into the Second
East Tennessee , in which ho might sub
sequently have had n commission had it
not been for his inability to read and
wiito. After the buttle of Mill Springs
I lost sight of him nnd did not BOO him
or hoar of him again until the close of
Brngg's raid Into Kentucky in the latter -
tor part of October , 1802. After the
futile pursuit of Bragg and KIrby Smith
through the mountains of Kentucky , wo
were roturninir by way of of Crab Or
chard , when I learned that Burke was
bounded dying nt a house near the
springs.
I wont to see my old friend at once ,
nnd was shocked at the change I s.iw
in him. IIo hud been shot through the
right lung in a skirmish with John Mor
gan , who commanded the confederate
roar guard , near Crab Orchard. Dr.
Throlkold of. the Eighteenth Kentucky ,
who wns in charge of the wounded , do
clat-cd that it wits a miracle that Burke
survived the shot un hour , but his excel
lent habits and splendid physique had
carried him through "in violation of all
medi'jal regulations nnd experience , "
for six days. But it needed "no second
glance nt the wan fnco and worn form o
show that the lamp of life wns flickering
in the socket and might go out at any
moment.
But , though so wasted and worn , there
was still a glint of the bravo old light ln _
the bluo-gray eyes , and the voice , very"
low now because of his weakness , was
not much changed. As I hold his hot
band in mine , ho whispered :
"I've hoord as how she gotthatlottor ,
but she didn't take hit 07. if she thought
I meant hit. I don't hanker to die ,
though I won't say I'm skcort at goln' ,
but , oy , hit kinder soaps the way to
think I'm 'bout to bo done fo' good with
that d d Sis Ferguson. "
That night Tom Burke ceased to perplex -
plox the doctors by dying. His cousin ,
Hudson Burke , was with him at the
time rif his dnatli and took cnargo of his
few olTocts. Hudaon Burke , though not
so prepossessing a man as Tom , was re
markably line looking , and thoto was a
family resemblance between .thorn that
was striking. Hudson had been
mustered out of service on account
of a wound received some months
before , but being mUstered out of ser
vice did not moan po ice at that time to
any union man In the mountains of
Kentucky.
The day following the burial of Tom
Burke , and two days botoro wo resumed
our march back in the direction of
Nashville , I saw Hudson Burke in ex
cited conversation with ore of the most
remarkable looking women I had over
seen , and , although I had never had a
description of her. I came to the con
clusion on the instant that this was Sis
Ferguson , and my surmise proved to bo
correct.
I do not have to refer to my journal to
bring that woman vividly before mo
after the lapse of these many years.
She was above the average height of
women , but so perfectly formed as to *
sootn undotsized in contrast with the
man to whom she was talking. The
olivo-brown face was framed by a mass
of blue-black hair that hung down her
back as if it had never been constrained
by net or braid. Her eyes matched her
hair in color , and there xvas in them at
this time a glow that bespoke anger
rather than grief. The forel.cnd was
low , the nose strong and straight , and
the mouth nnd chin told of fierce pas
sion and reckless determination. It was
i. face to attract an artist and to re pel a
lover if she 'id ' not choose to bo graci-
sus. The small , powerful hands were ns
brown as her face , and her * feet were
Incused in cavalry boots , and rusty red
splotches on ono incic.itod that they had
recently boon taken trom the body of a
dead trooper.
But it was. not the boots nlono that
gave this remarkable woman the tip-
Doaranco of a mountain Minerva. Her
superb form , that had never boon
cramped by stays , if indeed she hati
over scon such an article , was covered
\v ith a faded cotton dross. Instead of
concealing , this dress brought out the
splendid lines of her bust , and a slit on
the right shoulder gave a glimpse that
looked like snow in contrast with the
ruddy glow of her face. About her
waist there was an array bolt , the re
versed buck.o showing the southern
monogram l'C. S. A. " In the bolt was
a leather bolster containing a heavy re
volver. She were a straw hat , which
now looked like a straw cap , for the
rim had boon cut on" , excepting a piece
in fiont that answered for a visor , and
this was thrown up from her forehead
with an air that added to her look of
fierce defiance.
A loan , nervy-looking horse , bearing
tin old artillery siddlo , was hitched near
by , and the heavy rawhide with which
Sis Ferguson smote her booty while she
was talking to her dead lover's cousin
Indicated how she bad come into our
camp.
Hudson Burke appeared to bo angered
and perplexed , and ho moved as if anx
ious to bo rid of the woman. Catching
sight of mo iio motioned for mo to join
them , which I was not reluctant to do ,
for 1 regarded her presence as the clos
ing In the little military love drama In
which I myself had played an important
part.
"Tills is Sis Ferguson , as I rccon you
liavo hoard Tom speak of , " said Hudbon
Burke , by way of introduction.
I tumod and wns in the act of reachIng -
Ing out my hand to Miss Ferguson , but
a curl of the flno upper lip and n dangerous -
ous glint In the devilish black eyes
chocked mo in the act and made mo fool
like getting away.
"Aro you a Yankee Yank ? " was Miss
Ferguson's salutation as she glanced mo
over in a way not at all Haltering to my
very considerable vanity. f
Although I had never before hoard
the expression "a Yankee Yank" I was
it no loss to divine the woman's moan
ing. She wanted to know whether 1
joined the army from a northern or
bouthorn state.
"I'm a Kentucky Yank , " I replied.
"And you know my Tom Burho'r1"
" 1 had that honor , " I replied.

she pointed hurwulp lu the direction of
tlio gravoynrd.1
"Sis Fergtisoj/ , . " broke in Hudson
Burke , "no ono didn't send for you to
como up bar anil tnko on ovah Tom.
He's dnud , but hit' was your side that
kilt him ; most like yor cousin Champ
Ferguson nr youi1 Brother Ed.
Shooting ouL'ai bavago oath , then
striking nor lifted boot with u sharp
cut. she s.iid :
"Hud Bnrkcrrm my folks Is on the
south sltlo nnd Iftftbeon tllnr ln fcolin1 ,
but so long ns mv Tom was with the
Ynnks I didn't , novnh do nothln' agin
'cm. I thought a pownhful sight too
much of him fo' that. I didn't want to
have hit on my hoirt that If nnythin'
wont wrong with him that I had a hand
in hit. But now that bo's done gene
and died hlt'll bo different. Yo' mark
my words Ilud Burke , lut'll bo differ
ent , "
"You'll jlno Champ , mobbo , nnd help
him to loband murder , " said Hudson
Burke.
"I'll jlno nobodyP'sho said , scornfully ,
nnd with another cut nt her boot. "Now
thut Tom Burko's dead , thar ain't a man
in all the mountains ns I'd follor the
length of that rawhide gnd. But they'll
foller me , Ilud ; you mark my woids ,
they'll follor mo , nnd the Ynnks ns
coaxed him away won't mnko nothln' by
hit neither. Thar , that's all I've got to
sny. As soon ns my critter's rested up
a bit I'll make my w.iy back to Rooic
Crlk. "
She cut at the boot ngaln , toswod up
the straw visor , gave a liltch to the pistol
tel holster , nntl ettodo away , with the
long stride ana easy swing of a young
trooper.
An hour afterward I saw the woman
coming out of the jrravoyard , and I re
spected her for n sentiment that seemed
so foreign to her fierce , ma&cUllno char
acter.
Again the war scene changed , nnd it
was not till pence came again to the
mountains of Kentucky that I learned
anything more of i'Tom Burko's Min
erva. " for so I named Sis Forcruson in
my journal.
Every surviving trooper who served
in the Cumberland mountains at any
time in 18i3 ( , 1804 , and early > 805 will
romembci'tho notoriousguorrilla Champ
Ferguson , who , though fighting , ns ho
alleged , for the south , never hold a com
mission in the southern service , and was
quite as ready to rob and murder help
less men in grny as ho was to kill and
plunder the wounded men in blue. The
c uel and monstrous deeds of these
mountain Ishmaelitos mot with the con
demnation of confederates as well us
federals.
Prominent nmong thesn outlaws was a
man known tu "Captain" Evans , and as
sociated with him in his daring crimes
wns a "Captain" Jenny. " For a lonrr
tlmo the cavalry who were hunting
down Evans nnd Champ Ferguson be
lieved that Captain Jenny , who was the
acknowledged bruins of the gang , nnd
who planned their most successful raids
into the valleys , wns a man , though the
union mountaineers declared that Cap
tain Jenny was .Jpnny Ferguson , known
to her neighbors and relatives us "Sis. "
When I saw Sis' Forcuson at Crab
Orchard she certainly gave mo the im
pression that slip J3oud ! never love any
man now that Tom Burke was dead , anil
she may have remained at heart loyal
to him and mnrrie'H another simply a s a
military necessity'but bo that as it may ,
certain it is that she became the wife of
"Captain" Evans and accompanied him
on his forages , though I am inclined to
think , unless hd was n greater man than
his countryman'say , that it was ho who
accompanied-hor.
After their term of service had ex
pired in the fall of 1804thoso , members
of the First Kentucky cavalry who did
not re-enlist returned to their homes in
southeastern Kentucky , but , so far as
Eeaco was concerned , they might as well
ave remained at the front The gangs
under. Champ Ferguson , Jenny and
Evans grow moro during in their out
rages with the withdrawal of the con
federate and union troops.
The Burkes , still very numerous in
Wayne and Clinton counties , furnished
n great many soldiers , nnd good ones ,
too , to the union side. These men ,
although their neighbors wcro not exempt -
empt , were singled out as special ob
jects of attack by the ganjrs of Champ
Ferguson and Evans. Indeed , so per
sistent did these attacks become that it
was dangerous for a Burke to sleep in
his own house. Ol course , the perse
cuted union men .rotnliutod , but it was
not till the government furnished them
with arms and supplies and they wcro
mustered into the state service that
they were enabled to make any head
way.
Stung to desperation by the depreda
tions of Captains Evans und Jenny , Hud
son Burke organized a company of
twenty men , with James Davis as lieu
tenant nnd his brothers , James and
Benjamin , among the members , and
started olt to boat the outlaws at their
own game.
Frqm Jonathan Burke , nn undo and a
union man , who lived near the Tennes
see line in Wayne county , Hudson
learned that the outlaws were posted in
a fortified camp back in the mountains ,
u few miles from his place.
The Seventh and Ninth Pennsylvania ,
Fourth Kentucky and Fourth Ohio
cavalry had boon for months trying to
find the outlaws , but although many
were caught and hanged , they never
succeeded in striking them in force.
This was owing to the fact that Champ
Ferguson and his men not only know
every available cow track in the Cum
berland range , but they were leapt in
formed by their friends ns to the move
ments of the troops. Then they had
the additional advantage of being able
to travel without wagons , and they
sounded no bugles hi their camps to in
dicate their whereabouts or their pur
poso.

Hudson Burke was qulto as profunoas
hla dead cousin had boon , but no seemed
vary much more BO hccausu ho was moro
volcanic and vohomont. After ho hail
relieved his mind hy another volley
against Champ Forcuson and his gang ,
ho continued his uarratlvo , which 1 to-
produce very nearly as lu gave It , I
tbink :
"In our crowd there wns , all told , just
twenty men , but then they was oltl
soldiers , and every man of 'em hud been
thar afore. From what wo could larn
Evans had 'bout thirty-five , but , cuss
'om , they was every mnn of 'cm robbers
and lioss thieves , nnd I luiouod thov
wouldn't show up gnmo when the Umo
como. But to toll vou the truth , I foil
moro skcort of Sis Ferguson then I did
of all the rest.
"Hit was just 'bout an hour afoah sun
up , and when thur was grny streaks
a-gathorln' 'bout the mountain tops , that
Uncle Jonathan stopped and pointed at
a light down In a little bit of a valley
that wasn't ' moro'n a silt cut inter the
hill. Why , thorn cogits knowed so little
'bout sojorin' , or It may bo that they felt
so dead shuith that their hldlu' plnco
couldn't bo found , that they didn't- have
out no guards nor pickets.
"Wa uns snaked down till tlm dogs
heard us and begun to bark , then I
thought hit was 'bout ' time to lot the
boys loobo. You remember in the wall
that the Fust Kalmuck cavalry was
called 'tho wolves , 'count of our old kor-
nnl. TiVlllllfVnlfnpl f v rl/r n > .i.wl
when wo ustor charge , the boys'd shout
out : 'Wolf ! wolf ! ' Wu-al , as soon as I
give the word , 'Charge and give 'em
merry ole h , boydl' they starts up that
ole cry of 'Wolff and upon my soul hit
did mo n powah of good , and stirred mo
llko a bugle call at feed time.
'Wo uns ran through a right smart
bunch of critters a graziu' at tlio foot of
the valley , and then wo ctiino plum
upon four log cabins so fixed that a
dozen ole soldiers in 'om mou't a made
hit hot for a company if they knowed
they wits a comln' and wns prop thed ,
but them cloggono hounds aidn't 'spect
nothln' till they was woke up with that
ole ft oezln' cry of 'Wolf 1 wolf I'
"I novah was much at tollin' a story ,
moah particlah 'bout a fight A man
may bo fool ns ice , and do jest what he'd
ortor when the muss Is undah way , but
I nevah mot n man as wasn't handy , nt
lyin' that could toll much about hit
artor 'twas all ovah , and the othuh side
licked like blazes or mobbo not. Hut
wo uns did everlastingly waken that
crowd. 1 swar to hoivcn : hit does my
heart good jest to think of hit.
"Pro/.norsV Not much. Lilt war jcsi

out. Only thrco got away , nntl they
was cotchod next day by Cnptiiln Brown
of the Seventh Pennsylvania and strung
up. And that ended the Furgusongang
in our part of the stato.
Sis ? Oh , yes , Captain Jenny ! Wa-al ,
jest as every ono said , faho was the head
devil and she shot ono of our men nftor
she was wounded nnd her in man's
clothes ; jest think of that , in man's
clothes and spurs on her boots ! Sho'd a
done ti lot moro mischief if I hadn't a
run UD and jerked the pistol oughton
her hand and llunir hit away.
"Sho was shot throutrh the brenst , but
I reckon sho'd a pulled through if sho'd
wnntorl to. I know that our boys , much
as they hated her , couldn't bring them
selves to hnng hor. I hud her propped
up with a saddle at her back , fo' by this
tirao it was bright nnd sunup , and I
kinder felt a pity fo' her , jest 'cause I
knowed how much she'd thought of
poor Tom.
" 'Won't some of you cussed fools fetch
mo some water ! " she sez. Wn-al on the
spur every man Jack turned to got sotno
water. .lust then some ono yelled ,
'look out , Cap ! ' and I was jo.-ked behind -
hind a cabin. I heutd a bullet whistling
by my head , then there was another
crack. What do think hit was ? Why ,
Sis had a pistol in her boot , and when
our backs wes turned , she readied down
and pulled hit on mo. She missed , and
the second shot was fired in her ow.i
head. She was a devil , if over ono were
boots.1
