Col. C. C. Sanders, City.
Our most highly esteemed friend:
It is a source of great pleasure to
me that I havo the honor of in
forming yon that we, the Chil
dren of the Confederacy, Gaines
ville, Ga., have considered it our
duty in exerting our efforts
to keep fresh the memory
of the brave and noble sons of the
chivalnc South who so heroically
sacrificed their lives for the cause
of the South—a cause which they
believed to be right, and thought
the cause of their country, and
which, though a lost cause, we
hold it as an obligation to the
Confederate veterans and to the
Confederate dead to keep dear in
the minds of the loyal and patrio
tic. people of our glorious sunny
Southland of to-day—-to name onr
Chapter for one of Gainesville’s
worthiest representatives in the
war for the Cbnfederate cause;
and we have acted accordingly,
calling it the “C. C. Sanders
Chapter of the Children of the
Confederacy.* ’
I am, respectfully,
Zulah Howington,
Corresponding Sec’y.
Gainesville, Ga., Oct. 13.
Miss Zulah Howington :
Corresponding Secretary of the
C. C. Sanders Chapter of the
Children of the Confederacy:
I have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt of your communication
of the 11 instant informing me of
your selection of my name for the
Chapter of the Children of the
Confederacy, which you have re
cently organized. I had hoped as
I had requested your presiding
officer, Miss Kate Dozier, that
the honor should go to my beloved
gallant, and lamented Captain W.
^Fletcher Parks, of my old regi
ment, the 24th Ga. Vols., who,
when worn out with seuere march
ing and the dreadful consumption
brought on by exposure and fa
tigue of continued battles in Vir
ginia, and now lying helpless up
on a sick bed oil the bloody field
of Chickamauga, near his Georgia
home, lay dying in camp, refusing
to go home to his wife and chil
dren, whom he had not seen for
years, because it was impossible to
procure written permission from
the commanding general, with the
army in continued motion. He
was willing to die there among his
comrades rather than violate the
rules of the army. This was
heroism unsurpassed! I assum
ed the responsibility and com
manded him to proceed to
home, where he died in a short
time with that fearful disease con
sumption, and now he lies buried
on the banks of the beautiful
Cheatatee river, amid the hills of
Hall County, Georgia, that gave
him birth. He sleeps in sight of
the Blue Ridge mountains he loved
so well, and fills the grave of the
noblest, truest Confederate soldier
that ever followed Longstreet and
Lee, and upon his grave might be
written, “He did right in the
sight of the Lord.”
When our electric cars line are
completed they will pass near his
honored grave, when I hope to have
the pleasure to carry the “Children
of the Confederacy” and scatter
flowers over his grave, when the
gentle spring shall come, and thus
we will honor the trubst and most
lovely of Confederate soldiers.
Pardon me. Allow me to accept
the proffered honor conferred,
which shall ever live in fondest
memory. As you have willed other
wise, I can but thank you, as well
as the Chapter of the “Children of
the Confederacy.”
I have the honor to be, yours,
most truly.
C. C. Sanders.
