York Volunteers. His ornate headstone in Section 1 of Arlington National
Cemetery reads:
"Sacred to the memory
of my dear husband.
A kind and devoted
husband, an excellent patriot, citizen, and true friend to the friendless.
He did what he could.
Sleep in Jesus.
Often through the
deep water I call thee to go.
The rivers of sorrow
shall not overflow.
For I will be with
thee, thy troubles to bless and santicfy to thee thy deepest
distress."
