Grave of Allen and William Lowry. The militia shot Allen and William for harboring Yankee prisoners. Recalling the time he spent with Allen, William, Henry Berry, and the other members of the Lowry clan, he wrote: "I wish I could sufficiently express my heartfelt thanks to those Union people who showed me so much kindness while making my escape from Rebeldom."
