According to Touring the Carolinas' Civil War Sites.......when Confederate Genl Wm J Hardee's son, 16 yo Willie Hardee, died as a result of wounds received in battle, Union Genl Howard was one of the men who sent his regrets. Howard had taught Willie's Sunday School class when Hardee was commandant at West Point. https://books.google.com/books?id=Y...q=civil war general "Old Prayer Book"&f=false
