Sworn deposition of James B. Park as to an event which happened at his home near Greensboro, Georgia in the late Spring of 1865. He tells of a Confederate soldier and his servant spending the night in hiding at the Park home, them being pursued the next morning by a group of Federal troops. The Confederate did not reveal his name, but Park's father was under the strong impression that he was Jefferson Davis. Signed by James B.
