Cyrus/ An eyewitness account of the Skirmish of July 3rd, 1863 In lieu of an actual time trip back witness the Columbia Skirmish of '63, may I present in its stead an eyewitness account of that July afternoon, as well as the chilling story of how two young Columbians came perilously close to being executed by the Confederates? This account was penned by Judge H.C. Baker, probably in 1917, and appeared in the May 29, 1918 edition of the Adair County News.

Snow fell on the night of December 7, 1917, and by Monday, January 15, 1918, a total of twelve snows had fallen since winter's onset.
