Abstract:
The article recounts Parson William G. Brownlow's newspaper report of an "uncomplimentary" discovery concerning two brother, Mathew and James Johnson and first cousins to President Andrew Johnson. The two were involved in 1845 of the murder of Josiah Holloman. Andrew Johnson at the time was a rising young politician at the time, whom Brownlow carried derogatory references in his Tennessee newspaper, "The Jonesbough Whig".
