Samuel Mudd: Z Lincolnova spiklence l\u00e9ka\u0159sk\u00fdm zachr\u00e1ncem<\/h2>\n\n

B\u011bhem americk\u00e9 ob\u010dansk\u00e9 v\u00e1lky se Samuel Mudd, l\u00e9ka\u0159 a p\u011bstitel tab\u00e1ku v Marylandu, zapletl do spiknut\u00ed, kter\u00e9 nav\u017edy zm\u011bnilo jeho \u017eivot. Po atent\u00e1tu na prezidenta Abrahama Lincolna byl Mudd obvin\u011bn z pomoci Johnu Wilkesi Boothovi, vrahovi, a odsouzen k do\u017eivotn\u00edmu v\u011bzen\u00ed ve Fort Jeffersonu, odlehl\u00e9 vojensk\u00e9 v\u011bznici v Mexick\u00e9m z\u00e1livu.<\/p>\n\n

Fort Jefferson: Tropick\u00e9 peklo<\/h2>\n\n

Fort Jefferson, kdysi nedobytn\u00e1 pevnost chr\u00e1n\u00edc\u00ed p\u0159ed karibsk\u00fdmi pir\u00e1ty, se b\u011bhem v\u00e1lky stal v\u011bzen\u00edm. Jeho masivn\u00ed zdi a p\u0159\u00edkop v\u011bznily stovky v\u011bz\u0148\u016f, v\u010detn\u011b voj\u00e1k\u016f, dezert\u00e9r\u016f a stoupenc\u016f Konfederace, jako byl Mudd. Podm\u00ednky byly tvrd\u00e9 a v\u011bzni trp\u011bli \u0161patnou hygienou, nedostate\u010dnou stravou a buj\u00edc\u00edm hmyzem.<\/p>\n\n

Epidemie \u017elut\u00e9 zimnice<\/h2>\n\n

V l\u00e9t\u011b roku 1867 zas\u00e1hla Fort Jefferson smrt\u00edc\u00ed epidemie \u017elut\u00e9 zimnice. Nemoc p\u0159en\u00e1\u0161en\u00e1 kom\u00e1ry zp\u016fsobovala vysokou hore\u010dku, delirium a \u010dasto smrt.

Veden pocitem povinnosti a soucitu zavedl hygienick\u00e1 opat\u0159en\u00ed, kter\u00e1 zachr\u00e1nila nespo\u010det \u017eivot\u016f. Poskytl nemocn\u00fdm \u010dist\u00e9 l\u016f\u017ekoviny a od\u011bvy, uzav\u0159el ne\u00fa\u010dinnou karant\u00e9nu a pod\u00e1val l\u00e9ky, kter\u00e9 zm\u00edr\u0148ovaly p\u0159\u00edznaky.<\/p>\n\n

Zm\u011bna srdce<\/h2>\n\n

Muddovy nesobeck\u00e9 \u010diny mu vynesly respekt a vd\u011b\u010dnost jak v\u011bz\u0148\u016f, tak voj\u00e1k\u016f. Poru\u010d\u00edk Edmund L. Zalinski, kter\u00fd epidemii p\u0159e\u017eil, podal prezidentu Andrewu Johnsonovi \u017e\u00e1dost o ud\u011blen\u00ed milosti Muddovi, p\u0159i\u010dem\u017e uvedl jeho “odvahu, p\u0159\u00edtomnost tv\u00e1\u0159\u00ed v tv\u00e1\u0159 nebezpe\u010d\u00ed a uv\u00e1\u017elivou p\u00e9\u010di”.<\/p>\n\n

V lednu 1869 se delegace politik\u016f z Marylandu setkala s Johnsonem a p\u0159imlouvala se za Muddovu milost. 8. \u00fanora 1869, m\u00e9n\u011b ne\u017e m\u011bs\u00edc p\u0159ed koncem sv\u00e9ho funk\u010dn\u00edho obdob\u00ed, Johnson Muddovi milost ud\u011blil a uznal jeho hrdinskou slu\u017ebu.<\/p>\n\n
