While I hate that the meeting was missed, it was/is more important that every one stay safe. The good news is that the weather man is predicting a high of 74 degrees this Tuesday, so I look forward to seeing each of you on February 20th. January saw Confederate Heroes day in Texas. Many of our members were involved in area Lee/Jackson events. Special thanks to all who took time to remember our brave Confederate ancestors. It is my prayer that we each give our time, talents, and energy to see us have our best year ever as a Camp in Remember it is your camp and up to you to see that it succeeds. Until we meet forward the colors! W. Michael Hurley, Commander Bring A Friend! 1
2 W. W. Hearstill Camp #2042 FEBRUARY 2018 William Williston Heartsill ( ) Solider, Author, Merchant, former Mayor of Marshall, TX was born in Louisville, Tennessee in He moved to Marshall, TX in 1859 at the age of 20 years old. Once settled in Marshall, TX he worked as a store clerk in a local merchant store. When the War of Southern Independence broke out on April 19, 1861, he enlisted as a Private in Company F of the Second Texas Cavalry and served under fellow Marshall citizen Walter P. Lane. The 2nd Texas Cavalry served on the frontier from 1861 until November of 1862, when the unit joined the Confederate forces in Arkansas. Heartsill, now a Sergeant, was captured at the Battle of Arkansas Post on January 11, 1863 and was then a prisoner at Camp Butler, Illinois, until exchanged in April of Along with other exchanged soldiers, Heartsill was assigned to a makeshift infantry company assigned to the Army of the Tennessee under command of Major General Braxton Bragg. Heartsill fought at the battle of Chickamauga in September Resenting terribly being assigned to the infantry, He deserted his temporary unit soon after the battle and made a 700 mile journey across several states to rejoin the Second Texas Cavalry in his beloved Texas. He served the remainder of the war with the 2nd Texas Cavalry. After the war, Heartsill returned to Marshall, TX where he married Eliza Stephens and later opened a business as a dealer in groceries, saddles, and harnesses. From 1874 to 1876 using a small printing press, he printed one page at a time a series of essays which were later complied and titled Fourteen Hundred and Ninety-One Days in the Confederate Army. The work is now considered one of the most reliable, engaging, and perceptive views of the Army and home-front conditions in the Confederacy. W. W. Heartsill was elected Alderman in Marshall in 1881 and became Vice-President of the Northwestern Railway Company in He later served as mayor of Marshall, TX. He was an active and beloved member of the Marshall, TX community. W. W. Heartsill died in Waco, TX in 28 July 1916 and was then buried in his Confederate uniform in the historic Greenwood Cemetery in Marshall, TX on 30 July 1916 with a large portion of the community in attendance at his memorial. The W. W. Hearstill Camp #2042 is named in his honor. 2
