Hello.
My name is Henry T. Harrison. I
was a famous Confederate spy for General James Longstreet. I was born in Nashville, Tennessee in 1832. I wasn’t always a spy. I started out as an actor, but when I turned
29 I enlisted for the Confederacy. In the
military I started as a private in the Mississippi State Militia. But in November I decided to become a spy
for the C.S.A. Secretary of War. In the
Battle of Suffolk, I met General James Longstreet and ended up serving for him
for four years. One of the greatest
things I ever did was telling General Lee that the Union were heading back
north out of Frederick, Maryland, which started the Battle of Gettysburg. After Gettysburg, I decided to head up north
to New York and gathered intelligence and got married to Laura Broders. After the war, I moved our family to
Mexico. My wife and I had a fight, so I
left her and the children to go to Montana
to search for gold. She
eventually thought I died so she married another man. After no luck searching for gold, I moved to
Cincinnati, Ohio and then later to Covington, Kentucky.
That’s my story. But I have bad news. I’m going to die tomorrow.
Whoever finds this give it to the
government.
