Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 9. (ed. Reverend J. William Jones), Stonewall Jackson in Lexington, Va. (search)
we therefore publish the following letters — the first from an old student of Washington College, and the second from J. D. Davidson, Esq., of Lexington]: My first recollection of Stonewall Jackson is when I was a college-boy at Lexington, Va.ad commenced writing it, and when half written I heard a tap at my office door, when Major Jackson stepped in, saying: Mr. Davidson, I am afraid I wounded your feelings this evening. I have called to apologize to you. No Major, I replied, no apologapology to you. He remained for more than half an hour conversing with me, and when he left he said in these words: Mr. Davidson, these are the things that bring men together and make them know each other the better. The half-written note of aping men together and make them know each other the better. The half-written note of apology I now find amongst my papers. This incident speaks for itself, and reveals some, at least, of the features of that great and good man. J. D. Davidson
