On January 8, 1864, seventeen-year-old David O. Dodd was hanged as a Confederate spy. Less than two weeks before, a Union sentry had discovered Dodd with a notebook detailing Union military positions in Morse code. The body of Dodd, whom some call “the boy martyr of the Confederacy,” rests in Little Rock’s Mount Holly Cemetery where groups make yearly pilgrimages on the date of his birth.
