 May 18, 1863
 Public Ledger
  DOTT.-Killed, Sunday, May 3d, at the battle of Chancellorsville,
Sergeant CHARLES DOTT, son of Jacob and Margaret Dott,in the 30th
years of his age, a member of Co. G., 119th P. V. Gray Reserves.
      Patriot, in they narrow bed,
      Warfare waging over they head,
      Thou, who at they country's call,
      Gave up **'e, home, loved ones all.
      O'er they grave shall thousands weep,
      Unmolested, quiet, sleep.
      Sleep! but soon a mighty nation,
      With recovered rights of station,
      Shall with iron wrath assailing,
      Sweep, with an avenging hand,
      Every traitor from the land.
      Sleep! thine was a death of glory,
      Sleep! thine was a mournful story.
      Shrined in every loyal heat,
      Shall thy memory ne'er depart;
      And upon the scroll of fame,
      Deep emblazoned by thy name-
               My brother.
