The notorious Sam Hildebrand of St. Francois County, Missouri, was wounded quite severely in 1869. As a result, he hid out in the town of Big River Mills, where he dictated a memoir of his Civil War escapades. The memoir, referred to as his Autobiography but casino online netherlands also known as his “Confessions”
, is on book shelves again thanks to author Kirby Ross.
The man who shot Hildebrand lived in Fredericktown, Missouri, as a young man, but he moved on to St. Louis to became an author and an officer of the Missouri Historical Society. The man died in 1915 in Webster Groves.
