1861 Death of John Wise, Confederate soldier from Union Parish Louisiana

From the New Orleans "Daily True Delta", issue of 13 September 1861
==================================================================================
==================================================================================

Death of a Louisianian – We find the following in the Jackson Mississippian:  

"Died, of typhoid fever, on the 28th ult. At Byram's station in Hinds County, on the 
New Orleans railroad, Mr. John Wise, a volunteer belonging to Capt. Hicks' "Independent 
Rangers" from Union Parish, La.  To his friends at home, and to his brave comrades in 
camp, we are authorized to say that though he died away from home, he had all the 
attention of a skillful physician, and many kind and sympathizing hands administered 
to his wants until he was borne to 'that bourne from whence no traveler' returns."

NOTE by T. D. Hudson:
John D. Wise enlisted in Company E, 12th Regiment Louisiana Infantry on 18 August 
1861 at Camp Moore. His military record gives his date of death as September 1.
