- Paul Campbell Phillips (c.1844-1864)
In addition to Mary Ellen and Franklin Somers, Franklin and
Evelena had a third child, Paul Campbell Phillips, who died
of fever near Petersburg, Virginia 7 July 1864. The
military records for Paul Campbell Phillips sometimes list
him, as Paul George or George, a mistake that is
understandably propagated in Raiford's excellent book on
the 4th North Carolina Calvary Regiment -- but his middle
name was Campbell after his maternal grandfather Hugh
Campbell. Likewise James Gallanton (Gal) Fullington (died
1888), who was also in the 4th, is misnamed in the records.
James Gallanton Fullington married Miranda Campbell.

Camp Near Petersburg, Virginia
July 16th 1864
Franklin Phillips
Sir I regret very much to inform you of the death of your
son. He departed this life on the 7 of the month. He was
confined to his bed 17 days. He had all the attention that
any man could get. I visited him in his sickness. He was at
a private house by the name of Perkins. Mr. & Mrs Perkins
was very kind to him, done all in their power for him. He
had Typhoid fever. I tried very hard to send his body home
but failed, the Gen would not sign a furlough for any body
to carry him. I had him decently buried in a good coffin, I
attended to it myself. I marked his grave so if you wanted
to get his body so you could find it. He had 50 cts in
silver & a few postage stamps in his pocket book. Jarrel
Powell has his pocket book. The Yankees visited the house
while he was there. They stole his hat & some other things.
I sent his horse to you the 14th by Mart & all his clothes.
I hope they will arrive safe.
Say to his wife that he died in his right mind & expressed
a great desire to see her before his died. He said he was
willing to die but preferred to die at home. He died very
easy like going to sleep without a struggle. Tell her any
thing I can do for her in settling up his claims with (the)
goverment or in any other way, I will with the greatest
pleasure.
Yours with much respect
Jas. T. Mitchell
Capt. Co (B) 4th N.C. Cav
