The Marais des Cygnes massacre was an incident, in which, "a band of armed Missouri border ruffians had captured eleven Free State men, marched them to a gulch only eleven miles from the Bussey home, lined them up and fired a volley, killing five."
I see no evidence of Emory being involved, do you have a chapter number for your question?
