The following poem was written in a Bible owned by Alpha Cook - 21st North Carolina. Cook was killed in the battle of Cedar Creek in 1864. His Bible was taken from his co**se by a Federal soldier on the battlefield, 15 years later that Federal soldier would return that Bible to Cook's mother. This is the poem that Cook had written:

"I want to see my mother nigh, Oh can you call her name?
It wouldn't seem hard to die to have my mother near.
My home is in the mountains, up where the pine trees wave;
Was there I heard the bugle calling for the brave.

But, I want to see my mother, her tender, Loving eye -
and hear her footstep, to hear her call my name.
To have her pray beside me - No other prays the same.
I want to clasp her dear hand, and hold her to my heart,
And say, God bless you Mother, once more before we part.

Mother, Mother, come to me! I cannot die alone.
Come quick my Angel Mother, Oh, Don't hear me groan.
Oh No, she does not hear me, she doesn't know my pain
and She'll never, ever, see my old seat again

She's tending darling sister - I've dreamed of her all day.
And I hear my little prattler lisping, Brudder far away.
Oh God! O Chaplain, Hear me! Pray Heaven will give me grace;
to still this Dying longing To see my Mother's face.

There. Peace! I'll turn to Jesus, He never would complain -
He came to save his country, Yet Jesus too was slain.
Yes, Brother, God has heard you, He's calmed my agony.

My sins are all forgiven now: and he is all to me.
Then tell my blessed Mother, I'm dying peacefully -
Christ Jesus now is Mother! and he will take care of me."

Watch Lady School the Pentagon on their Pro-Slave Military Bases (not the ones you think)
Check our our newest Youtube video!
The Woke Pentagon has blamed the South for all their woes and has decided the solution is to rename the US Military Bases after American Heroes from the South. Fort Bragg, Pickett, Polk and Beauregard are just a few of the nearly dozen installations on the cancel culture chopping block.
Watch this lady school them in what every American should know (guess they missed history class). And listen up for a Memo to Massachusetts including Yale University! If you agree with her, send a message to your legislators

"Both Columbus, Georgia and Columbus, Mississippi, claim to have celebrated the first Memorial Day. Area newspapers accidentally published the date set aside for the ceremony as April 25th rather than April 26th, which is why Columbus, Mississippi, conducted the event on April 25th 1866. The Memphis Appeal printed an apology stating the date was a typo. But, it was, of course, too late.

In Columbus, Georgia, as well as some other cities, the soldiers who died in the War Between the States were honored on April 26th, 1866. The Ladies’ Memorial Association of Columbus, Georgia, passed a resolution in January of 1866 to designate a day to place flowers on the graves of fallen soldiers. The group’s secretary, Mary Ann Williams, sent information about their plans to newspapers all over the United States. The letter asked people to honor the fallen on April 26th, the date that many Confederates surrendered in North Carolina in 1865.

The 12 April 1866 edition of The New York Times reported, “Preparations are being made at various points throughout the South to observe the 26th of April as an anniversary in honor of the rebel dead.”

So, while Columbus, Mississippi is often credited with being the birthplace of Memorial Day as they held the first event, the ladies of the town with the same name in Georgia actually conceptualized the observance...."

Historic 1862 photo "The Lexington Rifles". When Kentucky Governor Beriah Magoffin established pro-Southern Home Guards in March 1860, the Lexington Rifles were the first to join. When Lincoln was elected President, United States flag stopped being displayed in the city. When news of the Battle of Fort Sumter reached Lexington, the leader of the Lexington Rifles, John Hunt Morgan, telegraphed Confederate President Jefferson Davis to offer assistance, and raised the Confederate flag above the city's woolen factory.
