I'm not able to a full tilt reference librarian search at the
moment - but I think he was active in St. Augustine during
the Civil Rights movement. I found a reference in Andrew
Young's book Easy Burden:
"when we reached the point almost a block away from the slave
market, Hoss Manucy and his gang, the Ancient City Gun Club
were waiting for us.

and another brief reference: http://huc.edu/news/vorspan.html
Since I've managed to emerge briefly - I've updated the 2000
hot lists on Overbooked - (Hey, Terrill - new Stephen Hunter
this spring!). http://www.overbooked.org/hotmyst.html
