Presented by English gentlemen as a tribute of admiration for the soldier and Patriot THOMAS J. JACKSON: and gratefully accepted by Virginia in the name of the Southern people. Done A. D. 1875 in the hundredth year of the commonwealth. "Look! there is Jackson, standing like a stonewall." James Lawson Kemper (June 11, 1823 – April 7, 1895) was a lawyer, a Confederate general in the American Civil War, and the 37th Governor of Virginia. He was the youngest brigade commander and only non-professional general officer in the division that led Pickett's Charge. He was elected to represent Madison County in the Virginia House of Delegates in 1853. A strong advocate of state military preparedness, Kemper rose to become chairman of the Military Affairs Committee. By 1858, he was serving as a brigadier general in the Virginia militia. In late 1861, Kemper became Speaker, a position he held until September 1863. Much of his term as Speaker coincided with his service in the Confederate States Army. At the Second Battle of Bull Run, Kemper's division took part in Longstreet's surprise attack against the U.S. Army left flank, almost destroying Major General John Pope's Army of Virginia. At the Battle of Gettysburg, Kemper arrived with Pickett's division late on the second day of battle, July 2, 1863. His brigade was one of the central assault units in Pickett's Charge. Kemper served as Virginia's Governor from January 1, 1874, to January 1, 1878. More

She married Elbert Latimer who was in the Air Force. After retirement they settled in Clinton, Mississippi where she writes a column for the local newspaper. She is happy to finally be fulfilling a lifelong dream. Jeanette won first place in the Mississippi Writers Club contest for The Perfect Revenge, a story of love and betrayal with a deadly secret leading to espionage and intrigue. Crestfallen is an historical novel about one family's struggles in Vicksburg, Mississippi, during the Civil War--struggles between North and South, father and son, brother and brother. The story is partially told in touching letters from the battlefield describing the terrible conditions and unendurable homesickness, and journal entries of a young Southern girls in love with wounded Yankee soldier. Both the love and tragedy will remain in the mind of the reader long after the book is finished. Crestfallen represents a part of our history that well remain the most unforgettable of the South.
