you have groups like archie clement who are resisting from the confederate side, and so

archie clement leads a group back. i'm running out of time because i want to leave time for questions. archie clement does not surrender. a lot of confederate guerillas say, you know what? there's no point in carrying on, they surrender. >> archie clement demands the surrender of lexington at the end of may, 1865. okay? this is someone who is not willing to stop sacrificing and fighting. he never gives up. jesse james himself is badly wounded in a gun fight with the wisconsin cavalry men. the first time that i can confirm that he exchanged fire with non-missouri troops is when he has a gun fight with wisconsin troops in may of 1865 so jesse james is badly wounded. however, in 1866 archie clement comes back and this is very important because this is the election that decides the fate of reconstruction. this is the one that i talked about yesterday that andrew johnson goes on the stump campaigning for a union which there's no slavery, but white men rule the south in which the radicals now come up with the 14th amendment

archie clement ends up being killed. and what happens? darell samuels is still having kids and names the son archie after archie clement. so by 1869, i'm going quickly through the history, and you can certainly ask questions, jesse james has a choice. all the old guerrilla leaders who followed archie clements have been found or given up by the missouri governor be. uh in 1869, jesse james and his brother frank go to rob in the davis county sentencing association because they believe that the cashier is the militia leader who would ambush and kill bloody bill anderson. in that robbery, they grab basically nothing of value, but jesse james makes a point of shooting down the man across the counter. as they escape from the scene, they boast about how, he boasts about how he's killed the man who killed bloody bill anderson. we know it is jesse james because his horse when the townspeople fight back, they overthrew him and he had to steal a farmer's horse. and back then, people knew their horses. and it was a famous horse locally because it was
