Peyton Farquhar was a well-to-do planter of an old and highly respected Alabama family. Being a slave owner, and like other slave owners, a politician, he was
naturally an original secessionist and ardently devoted to the Southern cause.
Circumstances of an imperious nature, which it is unnecessary to relate here, had
prevented him from taking service with the gallant army that had fought the
disastrous campaigns ending with the fall of Corinth, and he chafed under the
inglorious restraint, longing for the release of his energies, the larger life of the
soldier, the opportunity for distinction. That opportunity, he felt, would come, as it
comes to all in war time. Meanwhile he did what he could. No service was too
humble for him to perform in aid of the South, no adventure too perilous for him to
undertake if consistent with the character of a civilian who was at heart a soldier, and
who in good faith and without too much qualification assented to at least a part of the
frankly villainous dictum that all is fair in love and war."
