    MRS. REBECCA ELIZABETH POPE
    At 4 o'clock last Friday morning, the soul of Mrs. Rebecca Pope was launched into eternity. She was visiting in the home of her son, Dr. J. L. Pope, at the time and death came in a few hours after an attack of heart trouble. Her allotted time was 80 years, 5 months and 10 days and it was a long useful, active life, full of Christian services and endeavor. The remains were borne to Hopewell Cemetery Saturday, where Rev. W. H. Lane, very feelingly performed the last earthly service. Our sympathy is extended to the sorrowing children, who are as follows: Dr. J. L. Pope, Columbia, Mrs. M. E. Pigott, Mrs. Ophelia McMillian, T. E. , R. M. and C. R. Pope, all of Angie, and Mrs. Sallie Garrett of Knoxo.

    DEATH OF MRS. JEANETTE BARNES
    A sad death occurred last Sunday evening when Mrs. Jeanette Barnes, widow of H. A. Barnes died, from the result of Uremic poisoning after a few weeks of suffering. She had been removed to the Columbia Hospital where the best medical treatment was given her, but all this failed to delay the death angel, and she passed away leaving many sorrowful and bereaved ones. She was 45 years 3 months 25 days old, a beautiful and charming woman whose death seemed so untimely. She leaves orphaned, four children, Mrs. L. M. Brinson, Mrs. B. C. Page, Hilma and Sue Barnes. Hilma and Sue will make their home with their sisters, but will be well provided for in the estate left by the deceased. The funeral services were held at the Methodist Church Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock, conducted by her pastor, Dr. W. H. Hunley, after which interment took place in the local cemetery. The esteem and love in which she was held was attested to by the large host of friends and relatives who attended the funeral services and by the beautiful floral offerings which covered the last resting place.

    MISS SALLIE REAGAN

    Miss Sallie Reagan, one of Columbia's oldest and most respected ladies, died at the residence of her sister, Mrs. A. G. Webb, last Saturday evening about 1 o'clock. Nearly the whole of this year Miss Sallie had been a sufferer from chronic Pleurisy, with effusions and at times suffered intensely. Throughout it all, she displayed such Christian fortitude and resignation to the afflicting hand as to make her faith indeed a shining light to those who knew her long and loved her well. Her long life was devoted to good deeds, and no sacrifice was too great nor labor hard enough to deter an effort to do someone good. She was loyal to her church and as long as she able was in her accustomed place with meek and lowly mine attendant upon it's services. She was 75 years of age and leaves a large connection and very many warm friends who sincerely mourn the death of this good woman. The funeral services were conducted by Dr. H. W. Featherstun at the Methodist Church , on Sunday at 3:00 o'clock. An immense congregation following the remains to their last resting place in the Town Cemetery.

Death Certificate

  • Biography*: He was in the Civil War, CSA, http://ploughboys.org/36th-north-carolina-company-h/

    [John Morehead Johnston (1844-1917) paper, found among papers and letters in Margaret Graham Regan?s, nee Johnston, personal effects, daughter of John Morehead Johnston.]
         At the earnest request and many solicitations of my children to write a record of my life during the three years that I served as a Confederate soldier. These lines are penned:
         About the middle of July, 1862 [18 years old], I bid farewell to home and friends and boarded a steamboat at Johnston?s Landing [On the Cape Fear River?] bound for the war. I arrived in Wilmington [NC] sometime during the night and the next morning proceeded on my way to Fort Anderson [NC], situated about 15 or 20 miles below Wilmington, arriving safely. I applied for permission to join Co. H 36th Regt., NC Heavy Artillery [The Cumberland Plough Boys]. After some few days, I was sworn in for three years or during the war. Mr. Arthur Melvin [Arthur Wade Melvin, of Bladen County NC], who at that time was visiting his brothers [John Stephen Melvin & Joseph Moore Melvin], who were members of the same Company, administering the oath. From the time I left home until I arrived at Ft. Anderson, I was accompanied by Lt. M. W. Pridgen [Matthew Washington Pridgen], who was an Officer in the Company, and who was at home at the time on furlough. Capt. D. Patterson [Daniel Patterson] was in command of the Company. I was assigned to the same tent that the Melvin brothers stayed in and was kindly treated by them. Thus began my life as a Confederate soldier.
         I was given a uniform and a gun and assigned the duties that fall to the lot of all soldiers; such as standing guard, working on the fortifications, drilling, etc., for we had no fighting to do at that time. Our Company remained at Ft. Anderson about a year after I joined and while we were stationed there, I was sick with a very severe case of pneumonia. The doctors and nurses had no idea that I would recover. My brother [Richmond Pearson Johnston] was making me a visit and I was taken sick while he was there. He went home and told my mother [Hannah Jane Anders Johnston] how sick I was. She came right away and by good nursing, kind attention, brought me back to life and health. One of the sad events of my life comes in connection with this spell of sickness. Mother stayed with me until all danger had passed. When she left for home the doctor promised her that as soon as I was able to travel he would send me home on a thirty-day furlough. In a short time, I was able to go. The doctor had the furlough properly drawn and signed by himself and Capt. Patterson. It then had to go to the Colonel; he was drunk and refused to sign it. I had written Mother that I would be up on the boat on a certain night. Lt. Pridgen was to go with me. Mother was so sure I would come, she had a wagon and feather bed at the landing with torches all along the road, the gates all open and everything ready to drive the wagon up to the house door. You can all imagine your Grandma?s surprise and disappointment when the wagon drove up and I was not there. Lt. Pridgen got his furlough, but I did not. Your Grandma could not speak of that time while she lived without shedding tears. I don?t think I have ever fully forgiven old Col. Hedrick [John J. Hedrick] for the way he treated me on that occasion.
         It was nearly two years after this that I went home on a ten-day furlough, the only time I was away from the Army during my stay of three years. When we left Ft. Anderson we went to Smithville (now Southport) [NC] where we remained for about a year. Nothing of interest transpired while we were there. From Smithville, we went to Ft. Fisher [NC] where we joined our regiment and were under command of our own Colonel William Lamb. Life here was about like it had been at other places, not very much to do. We had good comfortable quarters and a good deal of leisure; true guard duty was harder here especially in the winter on account of the cold winds from the ocean, but in the summer we had delightful times bathing in the surf. Not long after we moved to Ft. Fisher, I was promoted to the Office of Corporal which relieved me from guard duty, as officers either commissioned or non-commissioned did not have to perform guard duty.
         Near the first of this paper, I said we did not have any fighting to do then but the time had come when we must face the enemy. It was on Sunday, Christmas, the 25th of Dec., 1864, that the yankee fleet opened fire on the fort. All day long that Christmas Day, shot and shell fell thick and fast. This was my first experience in a battle and to tell how I felt would be impossible. I don?t think I felt like a coward or that I wanted to run away but I imagined I would have felt more comfortable somewhere else. But anyway, we whipped the yankees for the next morning they left. Gen. Butler [Benjamin Butler] who commanded [the Yankees], reported to [Union] Headquarters that the Fort was impregnable. Of course, we felt good. When the yankee fleet started off, the band played ?Yankee Doodle? (We gave them ?Dixie? and a true Rebel yell). Of course, our Quarters including clothing and everything we had was destroyed by fire from the yankee shells. Col. Lamb put us to work repairing the damaged Fort for you know that the guns, many of them were dismounted, the works torn, etc. We repaired as best we could and about the time we began to feel easy, that is to say. On the 12th of Jan., 1865, the [Union] fleet reappeared, reinforced, and with a new Commander [Major General Alfred Terry]. I think it was a Friday that the second fight began and for three days the most terrific bombardment that history records was carried on between the contending forces. On Sunday night about 10 o?clock the Fort surrendered. We were prisoners of war. It was on the evening of the third day of the fight that I was struck on the left arm by a piece of timber knocking my gun from my hand almost completely covering me up with dirt and taking the skin from my arm. At the same time, a piece of shell struck me on the head. While I was not seriously [injured], I was painfully hurt so much so that I could take no further part in the fight.
         I went at once to Dr. Willis [William Willis from Tar Heel, NC] who had a temporary hospital and was caring for the wounded. He was an Officer in our Company. I told him that I was hurt and not able to stay in the fight. He told me alright. He needed someone to assist him so I stayed and helped him until I surrendered that night about 10 o?clock. I stayed there for the rest of the night, slept very little. Next morning, about sunrise, a powder magazine exploded. It was just a short distance from the place I was. I was sure that I was killed. I had been asleep and just waked up when I heard the report. The bombproof that I was in began to rock and reel over. I thought sure that it was falling, and fell down expecting to be buried alive. But it did not fall and I got out as quickly as possible. After going out, I heard that the yankees thought we blew the magazine up and they were going to kill as many Confederates as the explosion had killed in Yankees. I felt sure if the report was true, I would be among the number killed. But, they found out that the explosion was caused by one of their own men going into the magazine with a torch and the excitement ceased.
         The prisoners were marched up the beach about two miles from the Fort. We were kept here about two days, given something to eat and permitted to write letters to our home folks. I wrote a letter to your Grandma that was in Jan. but she did not get it and did not know what had become of me until March when she received the letter I had written in Jan. We were not allowed to seal the letters but left them open for inspection. After remaining here for about two days we were marched back to the Fort to the beach and put into small boats and carried to a large steamer. After being put on the steamer we were put in charge by a negro guard. We had been guarded by white men up to this time. I had never seen a negro soldier before so you can imagine how we Confederates prisoners felt. We didn?t know what they were going to do with us or where they were going to carry us. And right then I felt like I didn?t care where they carried us or what became of us. I was reckless, felt like I had rather be dead than alive. Anyway, the vessel with about 800 prisoners went out to sea. I stood at stern and looked and watched as long as I could see the sight of land. When I could no longer see land, I felt that all hope was lost. I was going, I knew not or cared with the sea voyage and a rough one it was. The vessel came very near being broken to pieces by striking a rock as we passed Cape Lookout [NC]. One of the prisoners died on the way and was buried after we arrived at prison [Point Lookout, MD]. After being at anchor for some time, we were taken ashore, marched to the building occupied by the Commanding Officer, formed in a line in mud and water, snow and ice, shoe quarter deep. It was sleeting, snowing, and cold as could be.
         Our pockets were searched, our money and other valuables taken after which we were marched off to the bull pen. It was then late in the evening. We were given some pickled beef and hard tack to eat. We were assigned to tents placed in a row from 18 to 25 men a tent. We were then in deed and truth, prisoners of war, confined in a yankee prison with about 20,000 others in the same fix.
         Life in prison is very different from life in camp. In prison we had absolutely nothing to do and less to eat. As for instances for breakfast about 7 o?clock, we were marched to a long house called a cook house. A table extending from one end to the other with tin plates arranged one on either side. We were marched in, each man faced a plate. If he got a good piece of meat, then well. If he got a bone, it was all the same. That was his breakfast. At about 9 o?clock, one man from each tent went to the bakery and drew bread for his tent. A half loaf or about 8 slices? to the man. At 3 o?clock we were marched back to the cook house and got a pint of what they called vegetable soup. You could drink it at the table or carry it to your tent in a cup of your own. You were not allowed to take the cup from the table. That was supper.
         The rest of the time was employed in killing lice, of which there were millions and millions. Or, if you preferred, you could dream of being at home and having good things to eat. For fire, we had green spruce pine wood. The fire was made on the ground and a hole cut in the top of the tent to let the smoke out. We slept on the ground with a pine straw mattress and one blanket to cover with. The ground outside was frozen or covered with snow most of the time. I remained in prison about six months.
         On the 28th of June [1865], I left Point Lookout [MD] and started for home. It took about six days to make the trip. First we came to City Point [in Prince George, VA] thence to Danville [VA] then Greensboro [NC] then Goldsboro [NC], arriving in Wilmington [NC] on the 2nd day of July. The 3rd day of July, my 21st birthday, I spent in Wilmington, bareheaded, barefooted, with very few clothes on and had been wearing them for six months. I left Wilmington about 5 o?clock that evening on a steamboat. I think it was the one that I went to Wilmington on when I started to the war. At about 10 o?clock on the 4th day of July, 1865, I arrived at home. After greeting the loved ones, the first thing I did was to call for a tub of hot water. They were washing and had plenty of hot soap suds. It was not long before I came out in a clean suit and after partaking of a bib bowl full of butter milk and corn bread, I felt like yankee prison and war were then so of the past.
         This ends this poorly written account of three years spent in the service of the Confederate States. While I have no deeds of heroism or acts of bravery to recount, I am not ashamed of the part I played nor will I ever be ashamed that I was a Confederate soldier.
