As a Camp we desire to re-express our unbounded confidence in his military career and in his unswerving devotion to the best interests of mankind.
Having passed through the gate which is ajar for all humanity, we mournfully bid the old commander and veteran of the “Lost Cause” a final adieu.

(Camp Ben McCulloch.)
“His fame and glory belong to the South.”
Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God to remove from this earth our distinguished comrade, General James Longstreet; therefore be it
Resolved, That we deeply lament the death of our comrade, and shall ever cherish and revere his memory.
