Widow rejoices at long awaited news of husband’s death
After forty years of anxious uncertainty, Mrs. Morris of Chester, Pa, learned that her husband Evan Morris of Company K Roundheads died at the railroad cut near Hull Run on August 20, 1862 during the Second Battle of Bull Run. Col. J. S. Dushane confirmed the death and identified the body by beard and a distinctive eyebrow scar. The couple had left New Jersey before the war, and Mrs. Morris had prayed for his return as a prisoner or casualty until this revelation.
