Out of Our Past: Letter gave tragic news to Civil War soldier s mother

Meanwhile, the week of May 10, 1863, a letter written by a Wayne County man to the mother of a man in the 69th Indiana that formed in Richmond struck to the heart all that is dear and tragic in war. Black River Bridge, May 14, 1863 Dear Mrs. Chenoweth: It becomes my duty to record the death of your son, George W. Chenoweth. He was mortally wounded May 1st at Thompson’s Hill, Mississippi (near Vicksburg). He fell while bravely and nobly fighting near the Old Flag.  We fought the Rebels for one hour and twenty minutes at not more than fifteen or twenty paces, and after they had fallen back, I walked over the field to assist in caring for the wounded. Fourteen of our boys had been killed or wounded; among those severely wounded I found George.
