Civil War Infantry
Twenty Second Regiment Infantry
As a commanding officer of patriotic volunteers he was successful in an eminent degree, as he had been in all the walks of life. He died of the diseases of the camp, in the midst of his command, in the doing of his duty. More than this need not be said. For him the pomp and circumstance and the battle are no more. To his fam- ily and friends he leaves the rich remembrance of an honorable fame, and to the State he loved, the pride that she had so noble a citizen. To you, gentleman, the representatives of the people, is committed the duty of fitly commemorating his services. "
