109. lappuse - While my own confidence in your ability, zeal, and devotion to the cause is unimpaired, I have nevertheless felt that I could not oppose what seems to be the current of opinion without injustice to your reputation and injury to the service. I therefore felt constrained to endeavour to find a commander who would be more likely to develop the strength and resources of the country, and inspire the soldiers with confidence...
385. lappuse - He's in the saddle now. Fall in Steady— the whole brigade! Hill's at the ford cut off. We'll win His way out, ball and blade. What matter if our shoes are worn; What matter if our feet are torn, " Quick step/' we're with him before dawn . That's Stonewall Jackson's way.
80. lappuse - Ashby bore to my command, for most of the previous twelve months, will justify me in saying that, as a partisan officer, I never knew his superior. His daring was proverbial, his powers of endurance almost incredible, his tone of character heroic, and his sagacity almost intuitive in divining the purposes and movements of the enemy.
127. lappuse - The noble, the chivalric, the gallant Pelham is no more. He was killed in action yesterday. His remains will be sent to you today. How much he was beloved, appreciated and admired, let the tears of agony we have shed, and the gloom of mourning throughout my command, bear witness. His loss is irreparable.
385. lappuse - Stonewall Jackson's way. Ah! maiden, wait and watch and yearn For news of Stonewall's band. Ah! widow, read with eyes that burn That ring upon thy hand. Ah! wife, sew' on, pray on, hope on; Thy life shall not be all forlorn; The foe had better ne'er been born That gets in Stonewall's way.
139. lappuse - PELHAM,' his many virtues, his noble nature and purity of character, is enshrined as a sacred legacy in the hearts of all who knew him. His record has been bright and spotless; his career brilliant and successful. He fell — the noblest of sacrifices — on the altar of his country, to whose glorious service he had dedicated his life from the beginning of the war.
110. lappuse - I am sure that you will understand and appreciate my motives, and no one will be more ready than yourself to acquiesce in any measures which the interests of the country may seem to require, regardless of all personal considerations. Thanking you for the fidelity and energy with which you have always supported my efforts, and for the courage and devotion you Lave ever manifested in the service of the country, I am, very respectfully and truly, Your obedient servant, RE LEE, General.
309. lappuse - Order AP Hill to prepare for action ! pass the infantry to the front rapidly ! tell Major Hawks " — then stopped, leaving the sentence unfinished.
385. lappuse - Ah! Maiden, wait and watch and yearn For news of Stonewall's band! Ah! Widow, read, with eyes that burn, That ring upon thy hand. Ah! Wife, sew on, pray on, hope on; Thy life shall not be all forlorn; The foe had better ne'er been born That gets in "Stonewall's way.
385. lappuse - He's in the saddle now. Fall in, Steady the whole brigade ! Hill's at the ford, cut off; we'll win His way out, ball and blade. What matter if our shoes are worn ? What matter if our feet are torn? Quick step ! We're with him before morn — > That's Stonewall Jackson's way.
