Supporting Documents:

Thos. A. Head (19 May 1905) - JHD tells the following story: Lt. Reavis killed a man who killed his brother in a personal difficulty over the division of captured property. Dibrell, rather than court martial him, put him in charge of 20 men for hazardous duty to go into the country above Sparta and assist the boys to get out (those who were there). General Dibrell sent Lt. Daughtery with a small force to gather these men and rendez-vous at Kingston. Daughtery rounded up about 800 men. Instead of going south, he stayed at home. Daughtery lived at Livingston and was captured. The men were willing to go to command, but depended on Daughtery to get them there. General Dibrell sent Reavis with 20 picket men to inquire. In the face of dangers that were appalling, he scoured the country and kept General Dibrell apprised of enemy movements. Jacob Davis was among those chosen.
