Lorenzo Dow Scott
was
mortally wounded near Dalton, Georgia on 19 Aug 1864, and died 28 Aug 1864.
He was hit in the right ileum, and the bullet lodged in his intestines. From
family legend, his manservant, a Negro named July, pulled him from the
affray to underneath a tree, and then later took him to a Union Post
Hospital, where Dow later died. July supposedly walked back to Screven
County from North Georgia to let the family know what happened. He had a
marked grave in the Union Cemetery in Dalton, but the United Daughters of
the Confederacy tried to re-inter the remains of several hundred of these
soldiers into the Confederate Cemetery at Resaca, but managed to get the
remains mixed up. Hence, Dow is now in an unknown grave. C'est la morte!
