"Strange Death of Confederate Soldier
"Found Here Delirious Two Weeks Ago - Unconscious Ever Since
"After remaining unconscious for two weeks or more, with the exception of a very few minutes, an aged confederate veteran named CAIN, died yesterday afternoon in the city hospital. He was picked up on the street about two weeks ago, in a demented condition. He was unable to given any account of himself. He was about 83 years old. It has been learned that he has a relative, Miss Nellie DUKES, of Minville, Baker County, Georgia. She has been notified of the death. No message has been received from her yet."
[From the Columbus (GA) Enquirer-Sun newspaper, Sunday, 26 MAY 1912, p. 6. I have no further information on this man or his family. I am interested to learn of his family connections - jml]
