Lucius Hale Ogle as told by Dylan Wilson
Dylan Wilson represents his cousin, Lucius Hale Ogle, who gave his one year fighting in the Civil War. When his year was up, he came home and did not go back. He was arrested, along with other men who had come back to the mountains and refused to fight. Located where they were, these mountain men saw themselves not of the North or the South, and many of them wanted no part of this war. Lucius escaped prison, came home, and was hunted down many times, narrowly escaping death on several occasions. He was later given a pardon, and went on to fight again. He later became a guide taking people to Mt. Mitchell. This story details his harrowing escapes. Lucius Ogle's life was chronicled in a July 5, 1903 article in the Charlotte Daily Observer.
