Little Mary and the Soldier on the Depot Platform

The Braided Hair and a Soldier’s Pledge of Mary

A Civil War era tale recalls a chaplain discovering a prisoner’s kept braid of hair and a child’s pledge. The prisoner claims the braid and note belonged to a wee maid named Mary, sent to his mother if he died. The story's touching plea sways generals and leads to a discharge. The governor’s guest Mary later confronts the minister about past events, revealing the braid’s impact on wartime mercy.
