Southerners fought for Hearth and Home. To defend their rights and families from an out-of-control government who sought to destroy not only our independence, but our entire way of life. And for four years, we stood alone and held our own before the long night finally overcame us.
How could I as a man of honor, not want to extend that protection to an innocent girl who lived in such unimaginable terror? To shield her from tyranny and persecution by a government motivated by the same insatiable greed and cruelty that destroyed us. That girl came so close to being saved from her nightmare, if only those who possessed the means to save her from it had won the race against time, but instead wound up dying lonely and cold, not unlike those young Confederate privates who fell on the banks of Sailor's Creek a week before Appomattox.
