Lt. Col. Douglas A. Murray Freemason Just previous to the battle of Shiloh, the 3rd. Ohio cavalry, commanded at the time by Lt. Col. Murray, took possession of Lawrenceburgh, Tennessee. The people of the place were understood to be all Secessionists, and the Lt. Col. Ordered his men to search all the houses, arrest all the men, and take possession of all guns and other arms…being careful to protect the women and children from all harm and insult. While this was going on, Col. Murray rode down the street, and while in front of the Masonic Hall, noticed that some of his men had been in the Lodge-room and taken possession of some articles belonging to the Lodge. Immediately ordered them to return every article to its place, and then placed a guard at the door to protect the hall from future violation. During the Battle of Shiloh, the
Third Ohio Cavalry captured a Confederate Surgeon. The Surgeon asked Lieutenant Colonel
Murray if he was not the officer who had saved the Masonic Lodge at Lawrenceburgh, TN from
being ransacked and was informed that he was. The doctor then told Lieutenant Colonel
Murray that it was that fact alone that had saved him from being ambushed. A Confederate
Mason who had witnessed his generous act at Lawrenceburgh had recognized him and ordered
his men to lower their guns and let him pass. Ohio Soldiers/Prisoners of War at Savannah GA FEDERAL OFFICERS HELD AS PRISONERS OF
