Archie Clement and the Uncivil War

"Little" Archie Clement was only five foot tall, but in the annals of the American Civil War in Missouri, he would be feared as one of the most ruthless killers. As Bloody Bill Anderson's right hand man, the pair would be called "devil incarnate" by the St. Joseph Herald, and diabolical by the Liberty Journal. Thousands of Union soldiers that could have battled the Confederate forces in the east were forced to search northern Missouri for the feared Bushwhackers. The reputation earned by "Little" Archie Clement made bigger men tremble at his name.
