Daniel N. Hucks was a Constable during the War Between The States (1861-1865) & was responsible for sending deserters back to their units. Daniel was elected to stay home & farm for his 5 brother's (that went to war). He was shot while plowing at home during the WBTS (by a deserter he had sent back previously). He returned 2 whose last names were Hughes & Squires. The rumor spread that it was Mr. Squires, a deserter that fled to Florida after this happened. Some time later, authorities went to Florida to find him for questioning. They found he'd been hanged there for killing a man in that state (Florida). Still no concrete proof who murdered him, & perhaps Yankee Scouts in the area could have been responsible.
