Perhaps the most extensive descriptions of this incident are in the following:

Collin County - Pioneering in North Texas by Roy & Helen Hall

History of Collin County by Stambaugh

McKinney Texas The 1st 100 Years by Vargo

Believe that Quantrill's boys thought Reed was a union man.The skirmish between the two groups has been called the Battle of McKinney.
