  HIST	He was a tutor in the home of Dr. Durant, and read medicine under his honored friend. He was a man and a doctor of the John McLure type, in the “Bonnie Briar Bush”, and the wonderful mold is almost gone! If Brewington and Manning and Brick Church could speak, all would tell of Father and Uncle Joe and the old tuning fork days--when they sang those great old anthems--”The Earth is the Lord’s” and “Jerusalem”--sweeter than any music of today, and we know they are all singing up there.  [1]
  MILI	Confederate War- We have the permit grantd by Governor Pickens to allow him to go to serve in the Richmond Hospital but he received orders to serve at home, and care for the mothers, wives, and children of those at the front, while he longed to be at the front also.  [1]
