[4CJ]

Weak, 4CJ. Very weak. You claim he was hung without any sort of qualifier, and that implies executed. So was he executed? Did he live? Did it even happen at all?

I used the same phrasing the author did.

A cyclone of popular indignation was raised against Gen. Sherman as he led his army through Georgia, and there were no "Union men" left in his track.

Besides the gentleman who was choked in Milledgeville, other old men--non-combatants who had nothing to do with the war, further than to indulge in that sympathy which nature prompted--were seized and brutally tortured to compel them to deliver up treasure which they were supposed to possess. Judge Hiram Warner was hung until life was nearly extinct. It was suspected that he had money, and this was what these "truly loyal" "Union Restorers" were most eager to secure. A girl eighteen years of age was stripped and beaten to force her to tell where her uncle, who was also her guardian, had concealed her money and his own. It is recorded with pride that this tenderly reared Georgia girl endured the torture, but never divulged the secret! Weak old men and defenseless women and children were in some instances driven from their homes, their dwellings fired, and these non-combatants subjected to insults and privations. For years the landscape in Sherman's track was disfigured with lone chimneys, which were called "Sherman's Sentinels".

Written by a Georgian so objectivity is in question. And where is Sherman in this? Like I said, you're delusional. You take a story written by a partisan and apply it to Sherman when there is no mention of his presence. You still haven't backed up your claim of tens of thousands of rapes. You neoconfederates aren't much for accuracy.
