While in camp. he was struck by disease, as were many American soldiers, according to Ben Windham in a 2005 article in The Tuscaloosa News. He was sent home but after making it safely to Mobile, he boarded the steamboat Tuscaloosa, which exploded 10 miles from shore.His headstone explains: "ABRAHAM FLINN, a native of So.

"At Chancellorsville he led the Third Alabama through the Wilderness over the Federal works, where he was wounded, his arm being shattered;...

"Her purpose was to show us the true meaning of life." Ava's battle with glioblastoma, a highly aggressive form of brain cancer which took her on a journey around the country, from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute...
