--WebTV-Mail-24698-3579 Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit Margie, The 3/4 size statue with the missing arm is at the grave site of Capt Edmund T. Randle, 1835-1903; he lost hs arm while commanding Co D ("Southern Rifles") of the 3d Ala Inf Rgt; as is usual, can't find my paperwork so really am not able to recount the circumstances; he was the son of Thomas P. Randle who served on Genl Quitman's Staff in the Mexican War; Edmund married Mary Carter, 1848-1894; the likeness (statue) at one time had a sabre in his remaing hand, but it has long since been toted- off.
