Anderson girls sent beyond Reb lines Jan 1865

So no Janie Anderson in that mention of being released on bond, just Mollie (Mary)--but Mollie and Mattie Anderson, sisters of Bill Anderson, arrived at Gratiot Female Prison under guard on Dec. 10, 1864.

Then on Jan. 17, 1865, sisters Mattie and Mollie Anderson, no Janie, were moved from St. Louis under military escort to Gaines Landing, Arkansas, to be sent on to Confederate lines. Accompanying them were Kate Beatty, Amanda Cranwill, Georgia T. Reed, Sallie McPheeters and Jane Ward.
