William W. Bennett, A narrative of the great revival which prevailed in the Southern armies during the late Civil War, Chapter 24: autumn and winter of 1864-65 (search)
near Petersburg wrote home to his wife, Grieve not for me. I am all right. My trust is in God, and I know it is well-founded. If we meet no more on earth, let us meet in heaven. Not long after, while sitting in his tent answering a letter from his wife, he was killed by the bullet of a sharpshooter. A gallant Georgia soldier, just before going into his last battle, said to his comrades, I may fall, but I fear not death. Lieut. Carpenter, of Gen. Morgan's command, when dying near Lexington, Ky., prayed, sang, wept, and shouted glory! glory! These are but samples of the death-bed scenes of our war-times. Thousands upon thousands went up on high with the shout of victory on their dying lips. In this connection we give the reader a view of what was called by our suffering prisoners at Johnson's Island an. exchange. Asa Hartz, a Confederate officer confined there, in a letter to a friend gives this touching picture: We vary our monotony with an occasional exchange.
