L. W. Chapin, Livingston, Tenn.:
I noticed an article in the July Veteran about Terry's Texas Rangers, which recalls to mind Lieut. Gulue. He had a few men with him, and was connected with Col. John Hughes' scouts in Middle Tennessee. He was a fine looking man and good soldier. Was wounded in the fall of 1863, in White county, on Calf killer Creek. He left the command and went to William Officer's, at the foot of Cumberland Mountain in Overton county, to spend the night, and was captured with his men there the next morning, seven in all, and all were murdered. I write this note in order that his friends or relatives may know what became of him.
