Driver Richard Hall, you are to be laid to rest here, in the shadow ofthe tri-colored flag, beside all these brave fellows, whose gallantry youhave emulated. You are justly entitled to make one of their consecratedbattalion! Your body alone, gloriously mutilated, disappears; your soulhas ascended to God; your memory remains in our hearts — imperish-able!— Frenchmen do not forget! Driver Richard Hall — farewell!.
