A tough old mountain man who's missing an eye and a leg and who Melanie met when he boarded in her basement. Despite being a sour old man, he was hale and intimidating that he was recommended to Scarlet as a coachman and bodyguard, which made him into something of an Atlanta fixture when Scarlet started to lend out his services.
Archie had been serving a life sentence in prison for murdering his wife (after she slept with his brother), and forty years into that sentence, he was recruited for the Confederate Army with the promise of freedom after the war.

* ForgivenButNotForgotten: Mean as he is, he was polite enough to Melanie to explain his story before she invited him into his home. For Scarlet, getting his story, even his last name, was like pulling teeth. It was only until Scarlet considered hiring out convicts, much to Archie's protest, that got him to talk about himself. Scarlet was surprised when she learned that Melanie already knew his old crime, let alone letting Archie into her house. Melanie's reasoning was that while other types of criminal make a habit of crime, no murderer does it more than once.
