Top Ten Civil War Quotes

I understand Jamie. I was just funnin' with you. That is a humoruous quote from Gen. Polk.

Here is another one, that is so offensive I edited it myself.

Captain W. J. Stewart of the 16th United States Infantry, who swore in a bunch of new recruits with the following unbelievable oath:
"You do solemnly swear that you will support old Abe as long as you live, and be a good boy, G_d_n you?"

This, along with a history of drunkenness and embezzlement, got him a verdict of two years at hard labor.
