Edward Hill: June 2, 1864

Suffered terribly from my operation yesterday the ball having passed through the flesh of the hip going also entirely through the Ilium bone from this point the surgeon has been unable to trace it, but I know what he thinks. He thinks that it has passed into the bowels and that I will die.

—Captain Edward Hill, 16th Michigan Infantry, Union Army

George Beck: June 2, 1941
