Madisonian (newspaper Morgan Co ,Ga)
Aug 18, 1893 W.L.A. Whitten
3d Ga. Regt., Co. D. To Have Been a member of the 3d Ga. Regt,
and to have followed Gen. A.R. Wright is enough to crown any man
with military honor, This may be said of Comrad Whitten, who was a
fearless soldier. His company comrades best know his worth, and
can better speak his praise. Comrad thou art gone but not forgotten.
Fare well.
