FRIEND TO FRIEND- A BROTHERHOOD UNDIVIDED Famous sketch by Frank Hummel Give them cold steel yelled General Lew Armistead as he headed for the guns of the 4th US Artillery. They say he went down with a cry about a son of a widow. Captain Henry H. Bingham, a physician and Mason, was brought to assist Armistead. Mortally wounded Brother Lewis A. Armstead passed his Masonic watch and personal papers to Brother Henry Bignam to give to his long-time friend Union General and Brother Winfield S. Hancock. Armistead died of his wounds on the Spangler farm. |
