17/41 General Cleburne's mare had her fore feet on top of the works, dead in that position. General Cleburne's body was pierced with forty-nine bullets, through and through. General Strahl's horse lay by the roadside and the general by his side, both dead, and all his staff. All dead! They sleep in the graveyard yonder at Ashwood, almost in sight of my home, where I am writing today. We love and cherish their memory. |
