"The Herald" Piedmont, West Virginia, Fri 22 Jul 1910: "
Piedmont and War Times-There, died in Cumberland at the Western Maryland hospital, 
last Saturday evening, July 16, a lady, Mrs. Mary Reynolds Walsh, resident of 
Lonaconing, whose residence for a while in Piedmont's vicinity was a very painful 
one, and whose memory of the surroundings are vivid long years after, even until 
her death. The family resided here during the years of the Civil War, and if we 
are not mistaken, the home was on "old" Hampshire Hill. When one of the minor 
raids of the Confederate was made on us, the "Johnnies" were chased out of town 
by a skirmishing party of "Yanks" who, having a cannon, made use of it out on 
Bloomington road from Westernport. A ball from this piece of artillery entered 
the house of the Walsh's over on Hampshire hill, killing a dear little girl, and 
taking off the arm of a little boy baby. That boy is now well known in Allegany 
county, Md., where the family have long resided, he from early manhood engaged in 
the profession of teaching, at present, and for some years back, being principal 
of the large public school at Midland."
