      Note from Irememberu:
      (Excerpt from Reminiscences of the Terry Rangers by J. K. P. Blackburn, 1919, page 21.)
      … There was a man, Charles Howard by name, strong physically and mentally, brave as Julias Caesar and well educated, but with the way and manners of a frontiersman, with many peculiarities. He had belonged to Company F but got a transfer to Company C for some reason I don’t recall. He had gotten a nice laundered white shirt from the sutler’s store the night of the 6th of April. Next morning, the 7th, as the regiment was formed to move, some one reproved Howard for tucking his shirt back at the neck, exposing his breast which was one of his habits, telling him it was a shame to treat a nice shirt in that way. His reply was, “If I get shot in the breast today I don’t want the bullet to injure my biled shirt.” Pretty soon we were ordered to move out towards the enemy and ascertain their position, their probable number, etc., and report back to the commanding general. Our movement, which was only intended for a reconnaissance, drew the fire of the enemy’s picket, for advance in their forward movement had already begun, and one ball struck Howard in the breast a little below the collar bone, going through him and lodging in the muscles or shoulder blade in the back part of his shoulder, not touching his laundered shirt. A little later while we stood in column still headed towards the enemy Howard came riding along the column singing “Blue-eyed Mary,” a favorite song of his. As he neared me I said, “Which way, Charles, with your ‘Blue-eyed Mary’ this morning?” He replied, “To Texas, don’t you see my furlough?” pointing to the wound in his breast. He rode horseback to Corinth that day, about fifteen miles, applied for and obtained a furlough soon after, went to Texas and about five months later reported back to his company for duty again, sound as a dollar.
