Smith, at Chattahootchie River Railroad bridge, to Col. Dustin, at Atlanta; his body was found twice pierced with bullets; there were also two bayonet thrusts in the breast; it was thought, judging from the character of the wounds that he received, that the brutal wretches bayoneted him after he had fallen; either of the gun-shot wounds, or both, of themselves, might not have proved fatal; as a friend, he was all that could be desired - frank, truthful and good; as a companion, pleasant, amiable and attractive; as a soldier, true as steel and brave to a fault; he was buried on a high hill within the fortification near the river; George W., also served in the late war, and died in the service at Fayetteville, W.
