Why was Luke shot?
Was she considered a traitor?
shareHer names was Lukey.
And I don't know.
A black person riding with Union soldiers?
Aiming for soldiers and missed?
Late reply but agree. Rebs fired at a column of Union Cavalry. Not at a particular person. So, like they say, "being in a bad place at a bad time..." the bullet found her instead of a Union soldier. Remember the Rebs were outnumbered, so were very eager to fire and run.
