Southern Confederacy, Apr. 9, 1862 -- page 2
A SINGULAR PROPHECY
The following circumstances recently occurred at Pensacola and its truth is vouched for by a reliable officer of the army:
A soldier in the Confederate Service fell into a long and profound sleep, from which his comrades vainly essayed to arouse him, At last he woke up himself. He stated that he should die the next afternoon at four o'clock, for so it was revealed to him in his dream. He said that in the last week of the month of April would be fought the greatest and bloodiest battle of modern times, and that early in May peace would break upon the land more suddenly and unexpected than the war had done in the beginning. The first part of the prophetic dream has been realized because the soldier died the next day at four o'clock, P.M. Will the rest be in April and may? Let believers in dreams wait and see.
Do you think the soldier was correct?
