"Form Brigades" by John Paul Strain

[CSA Today]

On the 28th, the day before the Battle of Spring Hill, Cleburne called his troops together for what would be the last time. Addressing them in his rich Irish brogue, he vowed he would rather die than surrender. General Forrest had tremendous respect and admiration for his friend General Cleburne and once said at the Battle of Chickamauga, "Do you see that large body of infantry marching this way in columns of fours? That is General Pat Cleburne's division; Hell will break loose in Georgia in about fifteen minutes."

I've always like that print.

That is an awesome picture, and the quote by Forrest I had never heard before either, although I've heard that expression, never knew it had a historical basis. Thanks for both!
