MITCHELL

    Mr. J. M. Darnell (Judy Mitchell) had only one brother, young Herbert
Mitchell, who was killed in the War between the States. When they brought his
remains home sometime after, and opened the casket, the gallant young soldier
had turned to dust! His last words were, "Close in boys, the victory is ours!"
After my daughter's marriage, to Mr. Herbert Mitchell Franklin, I found out that
this noble young soldier was the great uncle of my grandson, Herbert Mitchell
Franklin, II.

    The mother, of Mrs. Darnell and Herbert, married a son of Gov. David
Mitchell; then, after his death, married Mr. Charles. Their two children were
Francis Charles and Mary Charles. Francis Charles joined the Navy and wrote home
regularly for a year, then his letters ceased, and the family never knew what
became of him.

    Mary Charles married Mr. S. O. Franklin, and became the mother of Mrs. Mary
Adams, Mrs. Laura Smith, Mrs. Carrie Jacobson, Mr. White Franklin, and Mr.
Herbert Mitchell Franklin, all of Tennille, Georgia.

(Mrs. Louisa Kendall Rogers, Tennille, Ga.)
