Thank you Bill. I will look forward to the publication of your book. And that Princeton Cemetery is truly magnificent. Must be well over a hundred Confederate soldiers buried in it. Probably dozens who died during the War.

Yes, freedom’s flag he raised on high,
Then came the shout and battle cry:
When Texas poured her legions forth,
To oppose the vandals of the North.

With Spartan band he left his home,
For martial fields, till peace should come,
To light, with smiles, war’s sullen brow,
He has fulfilled his country’s vow.

Thanks to Thomas Reid, author
“Spartan Band: Burnett’s 13th Texas Cavalry in the Civil War”
