June 14th, 1864
Lt. General Leonidas Polk, the Fighting Bishop, was killed by an artillery round while observing Union positions from atop Pine Mountain. Polk was the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana. Dearly loved by the soldiers that served in his command, his death was a great loss to the Confederacy.
