Comrade Cothern and the Atlanta Campaign Feats
The narrative recalls Comrade Cothern of Company H Seventh Mississippi Sharp's Brigade during Civil War action near Atlanta. He reportedly seized a cannon and captured a Yankee captain after a brutal melee, with a forged tale of a daring escape at the caisson amid heavy shelling. Recollections include a picket encounter with Johnnie Rawls, an Indiana cavalryman, and a later Masonic funeral scene for Captain Rankin. Cothern notes relics and his own postwar life in Pike county Mississippi, and invites correspondence.
