Killed near Norfolk, Mississippi Co, MO. Give me the death of those who for their country dies, be mine like their repose when cold and low lie. Their loveliest Mother Earth enshrines the fallen brave, in her sweet lap who gave thee birth they find an honored grave. The love of liberty with life is given and life itself the (inf) gift of Heaven. (See also W.E. English. These were two Confederate Soldiers found dead near Norfolk and buried at Rush Ridge under a single stone.)
