Dent W. G. Whips

On the second day of the job some members of the Sons of Liberty came to Stidger’s new office. Members included B.B. Piper, Doctor Chambers, Dent W. C. Whips, Doctor Kalfus, and Judge Bullitt. During the conversation it was brought up that a certain member of the order that went by the name of “Coffin” was a Union spy. Judge Bullitt gives Stidger a check for twenty five dollars, and tells him to go see Doctor Bowles and tell him that this man Coffin “is a Yankee Spy” and since Boweles let him into the order he needed to have Coffin “murdered”.
