| Stonewall Jackson on R.L. Dabney
Mary Anna Jackson, Memoirs of Stonewall Jackson, pp. 254, 258, 304: Quote:
[April 16, 1862]Dr. Dabney is here, and I am very thankful to God for it. He comes up to my highest expectations as a staff-officer.
[May 19, 1862]Yesterday Dr. Dabney preached an excellent sermon from the text: 'Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.' It is a great privilege to have him with me.
[Upon Dr. Dabney's resignation due to ill health:]It was with tearful eyes that I consented to our separation.
