Lt Col John Bull, Cabell's Arkansas Cavalry
Lt Col John Bull, middle initial either C. or P., headed a unit which captured Union Major James Wilson, for the second time, in the battle at Pilot Knob, Missouri. Wilson went into the fight carrying a Smith and Wesson Model 2, pistol, engraved with "Major James Wilson, 3rd Cav. M.S.M., 1864. I would like to hear from the descendants of Lt Col John Bull, to find out if Mj Wilson's pistol ended up in John Bulls estate as "spoils of war".
