d that he was dying: Tell my mother that I am lying without hope of recovery. I have stood before the enemy fighting in a great and glorious cause and have fallen. My hope is in Christ, for whose sake I hope to be saved. Tell her that she and my brother cannot see me again on earth, but they can meet me in heaven. A little before bedtime of his last night he called to his surgeon and said: Write to mother, and tell her she must meet me in heaven. I know I am going there. When Captain John F. Vinson, of Crawford county, Georgia, came to die, he exclaimed: All is well—my way is clear—not a cloud intervenes. As Lieutenant Ezekiel Pickens Miller, of the Seventeenth Mississippi Regiment, fell mortally wounded on the field of Fredericksburg, he exclaimed: Tell my father and mother not to grieve for me, for I am going to a better world than this.
