Why the sudden silence? Did you find the magazine and discover what a fool you've been acting like?
It has been shown to my satisfaction that you have no source.
If you have access to this magazine, put some of it in the record.
Otherwise it's dead issue.

Gladly. When I have the chance to go back to the library I'll make a copy and post an excerpt. I'll also transcribe the documents themselves once I get them from the archives, just as I indicated earlier.
In the meantime, I did recently come across a web reference to the event. It's listed as a note next to one of the soldiers on the 32nd Tennessee Co. K's muster role.
"SANDERS, George W. - He was a brother to Chapman SANDERS. Both men were sons of Thomas G. SANDERS and Mary Ann McDANIEL sanders. George W. was shot in the arm while in service and it went lame. After serving his tour of enlistment in the 32nd, young George came home to find Yankees all over Tullahoma and Franklin County environs. George, his father, Thomas, and his uncle William were shot and killed by Yankees of Capt. William H. LEWIS' Company A, 42nd Missouri Vol. Inf. US, on 11 Jan. 1865. Family rumor has it that SANDERS would not reveal where some Confederate guerillas were hiding."
