The following document comes from the Confederate Veteran, a magazine published throughout the South from the 1890s until the 1940s. It comes from Volume XI which contains writings from the year 1903, page 112. D. Eldridge, Historian Third N. H. V., writes the following description of the cemetary at Elmira, Ny.: "The portion of Woodlawn Cemetery set apart for Confederates who dies at the Elmira Prison is in the northeast corner, oblong in shape, and running east and west. On the right of the plot is Davis Street, running north and south, north to the reformatory, the southern course running nearly into the heart of the city. "A large majority of the graves of the dead Confedeates are now level, and the wooden headboards originally placed have long ago disappeared. Nothing marks the graves save as hereinafter described---excepting the case of four at irregular places, on each of which latter loving hands of relatives ot friends have erected marble mementos. One is in the shape of a shaft marked 'E.K. Lindsay, C.S.N., Rockingham County, N.C; died May 8th, aged 21 years.' does anyone know this line of Lindsay?
