21. What Union veteran of Gettysburg is honored with a statue on the campus of Notre Dame University?
22. Which Union and Confederate generals who were roommates at West Point both became converts to Catholicism?
23. What Union general, mortally wounded at Gettysburg on July 2, 1863, when asked if he was badly hurt, said "I'm as dead a man as Julius Caesar"?
24. What tattoo did John Wilkes Booth have on his left hand?
25. (Two point question) Where and when was the final reunion of the United Confederate Veterans? (Since this is the two point question, you must name both the city and the year to get credit for your answer.)
