Missouri was one of the slave-states that had not voted Confederate. But it was a deeply divided area. The local Union commander had organised an unofficial truce at the beginning, but one of his subordinates broke the truce, casing outrage among the Confederates. For the rest of the war, there was bitter guerrilla fighting, and Lincoln did not really control this state, even though it was officially in the Union.
