That quote refers to Stonewall Jackson, I think.

You are right - "There stands Jackson like a stone wall" I got the quotes crossed - up.
After Rosecrans had given orders for a retreat at Chickamauga, Thomas refused, and held his position. That is what prompted James Garfield to tell Rosecrans " he is standing like a rock".

i went to gettysburg and yorktown and some other battle fields when i was in high school, they were pretty sweet, there was a cannon there from the civil war that had been hit by another cannon ball and had a big ol dent in it it was cool. and i saw trees with cannon ***** in them and a barn with like a bunch bullets in a big beam that was really old. It was really cool. A lot of the berms and trenches and everything that were dug are still there too

Hey guys! Just finished griiling some cheeseburgers for the Family, per Mom's request. Grilled some venison chops for myself. 
Had some chocolate chip muffins for dessert.
Momma is happy! Guess I did a better job than last year...
G'night all. See ya on the boards tomorrow.
