many sacrifices and endured so many wrongs without complaint, and whose heroic sons had won glory and honor on every battlefield of the war. Thirty-nine thousand and twelve officers and men of Johnston's army were paroled at Greensboro, N. C., and other points, in accordance with the military convention of April 26, 1865, and among them were 2,000 Tennesseeans, all in Cheatham's division. The paroled soldiers, maintaining their organizations, retired to Salisbury, where rations were distributed and $1.25 in coin was paid to officers and men. This fund constituted the military chest of the army and had just come under the control of General Johnston, under orders from President Davis. It was the first payment in coin made to the troops, and the first of any description for many months.

On November 23, 1864, being unfit for active service in the field, he was ordered to report temporarily to General Breckinridge. After the war had ended, General Jackson, like the thousands of other citizen-soldiers, returned quietly to the pursuits of peace. On October 30, 1889, he died at Jonesboro, Tenn.
