Description
Excerpt from The Life and Services of Gen. Ben McCulloch
His religion was not only of principle, but of feel ing. Love governed his soul; peace kept his heart; and that sacred peace often kindled into holy joy, especially dur ing his last affliction, as he frequently remarked that though his earthly tabernacle was fast dissolving, he had a better house above, eternal in the heavens. To say that he had no faults, would be to deny that he was human; but this we may safely affirm: that those who knew his faults knew also his many virtues. I yield to the truth of his death with a sorrowful heart, for I knew him well and loved him much. But that sorrow is greatly moderated by the comforting hope that I shall soon see him again in that house whose maker and builder is God.
