Memorial Day

"I look forward to the time once again in peace I can enjoy the blessings of home. Once in a while it looks doubtful. Most everyday I see some of my comrades taken away, but then I think 'will not that Providence which has so kindly protected me this far bring me safely back to you'" - Sergeant David Holmes, 20th Michigan Infantry, June 6, 1864, the day before he was killed at the Battle of Cold Harbor.
