This is the true story of Rebecca Moffatt, a woman who secretly aids a wounded Union officer despite her husband fighting for the Confederacy. Her act of compassion sparks a perilous journey of over 250 miles from Tennessee to Missouri, where she sets out with two former slaves, an old horse, and a dogcart to rescue her imprisoned husband. It is a tale of love, courage, and determination during the Civil War—preserved through oral history and passed down for 150 years.
