Robert MORRISS, Esquire... Knight of Pythias...?

[Rebel - KGC]

Hmmm; RM is "called" ESQUIRE in one of TJB's letters to him. NO record of a Robert Morris/MORRISS being an attorney (ESQUIRE being formal "title" of a lawyer/attorney). FAKE name...? Was RM a KoP; Knight of Pythias...?

NOPE... RM died in 1863; KoP started in 1864.

It DOES "call attention" to the letters of TJB to RM; "It was in the second year, of the CONFEDERATE WAR.... THE SECRET".
Hmmm...

Given to the oldest son who was going to carry out the family name. Good thought though
