Presbyterian banner. (Pittsburgh, Pa.) 1860-1898: October 28, 1863
Died in hospital, at Washington City, September 19th, of wounds received in the
second battle of Fredericksburg, George W. Long, in the 27th year of his age. Mr.
Long was a member of Co. C, 139th P. V., and bore the reputation of an upright man
and a brave soldier. We trust he was a." soldier of the cross." When on the way to
join his regiment, a year ago, he called on the writer of of this notice, deeply
concerned about his salvation. He confessed that he had too long neglected the
interests of his soul, and professed an earnest desire to believe in Jesus, profess
his name and receive Christian baptism. He was subsequently baptized in company with
three or four other soldiers, and, we trust, is now with Jesus, the Captain of his
salvation, and the great company in white robes who stand before the throne.
