_tTo conscientiously and manfully perform the duties of a journalist --
_tA self-made man who worships his creator --
_tIf I have watermelons and whiskey ready --
_tA fanatical, impertinent, revolutionary fellow --
_tNow General Sherman, tell us your troubles --
_tA changed man was he --
_tThe yeast which overflows in many columns --
_tI am 17 years and six months of age --
_tHe was pure in thought and word --
_tTrue, steadfast and gentle --
_tThey string you up to a tree damned quick --
_tA country redeemed, saved, baptized --
_tIn search of captains and children --
_tThe most persistent news hunter in Washington --
_tAn unusually gauzy mystery of enchantment --

_tWhether living now or dead he could not tell --
_tDeath was in every one of them --
_tPursuing his duty with a heavy heart --
_tA butcher's pen --
_tHateful ravages --
_tThey came by the thousands --
_tHow beautiful he looked at her out of his eyes --
_tI would rather hear he was dead than that he had disgraced himself --
_tWho can write the history? --
_tThe blood of a brave son printing upon his tortured heart --
_tMore than his proportionate part --
_tYou will almost want to kill him --
_tBone of our bone and flesh of our flesh --
_tHe stood at my side --
_tI know what I saw distinctly with my own eyes --
_tHe would have rather died that way than any other --
_tSorrowful joy and profound gratitude.
520 0 _aThis vivid exploration of one of Gettysburg's most famous stories--the story of a father and a son, the son's courage under fire, and the father's search for his son in the bloody aftermath of battle--reconstructs Bayard Wilkeson's wounding and death, which have been shrouded in myth and legend, and sheds light on Civil War-era journalism, battlefield medicine, and the "good death."
