Biography
Warren J. Reed was a Delaware schoolteacher and justice of the peace whose two detentions are described by Marshall.
Marshall reports two detentions of Warren J. Reed, a Delaware schoolteacher and justice of the peace. He was arrested while teaching in September 1862 and held at Fort Delaware for nearly a month. He was arrested again in June 1863 and confined for eight weeks in an old Quaker church at Smyrna. The author links both arrests to Reed's political opposition and reports release without charges.

Marshall is a partisan retrospective source; its allegations are attributed to the author.
