“In the true history of this Army of Northern Virginia, which laid down its arms not conquered, but wearied with victory, you have a record of deeds of valor, of unselfish consecration to duty, and faithfulness in death, which will teach our sons and our sons’ sons how to die for liberty. Let us see to it that it shall be transmitted to them.”
-- Lee’s aide-de-camp, Colonel Charles Venerable
