Charles Dougherty ... was at Galesburg College (Illinois) in February 1853. He studied medicine, went to Mississippi in a few years before the war broke out and died, poor fellow! in the southern army. I loved him much. He was to me an agreeable, pleasant, promising young man when I saw him last in the summer of 1858.
* Henry Eaton's brother, Thomas, was the first husband of Ann Eliza Dougherty, who was Charles' oldest sister.
