Obit of James Pinkney Cagle from the Winston County Journal, 2 Nov 1927. "TAPS SOUNDED FOR J. PINK CAGLE VETERAN SOLDIER AND MASON The news spread over the community on last Monday about noon October 31st, 1927, that the soul of our oldest citizen had passed from its earthly tabernacle, when J. Pink Cagle silently and peacefully closed his eyes --- in death at his home on North Columbus Avenue. While he had been failing in health for some months, and had passed the four score years, he had not given up the fight, but was seen in the usual walks of life the greater part of the time until a day or two prior to his death. Funeral services were held at the Baptist Church on Wednesday afternoon, where one of the largest audiences in the history of the town gathered to pay him their last respects. His pastor, Dr. J.N. McMillan, assisted by Rev. J.C. Watson, conducted the beautiful services after which the body was turned over to the Masonic Fraternity who completed the burial rites at the grave. Another evidence of the love and respect in which this aged citizen was held by the community in which he resided the greater part of his long life, was the large floral offerings which came from far and near, and the closing of the business houses of the city for an hour in respect. Preparations had been made for one of the most beautiful Masonic ceremonies ever had here, more than one hundred Masons being present, the Grand Lodge being in charge. But unfortunately a heavy rain storm came up suddenly just as the procession left the church which seriously interfered with the Masonic program as well as program by the Boy Scouts in respect to his affiliation as a Confederate Soldier. Deceased was a wonderful man in many respects. Entering the Confederate Army at the age of sixteen years as a bugler, he spent the last years in the bitter siege. He belonged to the 11th Mississippi, Perrin�s Regiment, Ferguson�s Brigade, and was always a loyal and devoted Veteran. In his private life he was always active in all things that pertained to civic life, and unselfishly gave his time and means when called upon. His home life was one of devotion to his family. He held many positions of trust and honor in the communities in which he resided. He was a devoted member of the Louisville Baptist Church for sixty years. He served as Moderator of the Louisville Baptist Association, was Sunday School Superintendent for a number of years, and Trustee of the High School. He served more than one term as Mayor of Louisville, as several terms as Magistrate of the District One, which place he held at his death. He was a devoted Mason and held the responsible position of Grand Tyler of the Grand Lodge, Grand Sentinel of the Grand Chapter and of the Grand Council, besides holding office in the local Blue Lodge, Chapter and Council. He never failed to attend the Confederate Reunion�s, and was Adj. Gen. of the State Organization at his death, and recently stood for more than five or more hours at Guard at the unveiling of the statue of his Chieftain, Jefferson Davis, at Vicksburg. He was also Brigade Commander of the Sons of Veterans of the State. "Uncle Pink" is remembered by generations of Louisville children because he always wore his CSA Uniform and rode his horse in all local parades and functions. Many assume that the statue of the Confederate Soldier that now sits in an intersection of Main St. is in honor of Pink. Acutally, he only posed for the statue - it honors all the Winston Co. Troops. He was buried (or so I am told) in the dress uniform given to him several years earlier by members of the CSA Veterans in honor of his long service in that organization. James Pinkney was an older brother of my grandmother, Eululia Cagle Costiloe. They were the children of Charles Hughey Cagle and Margaret Elvira Richardson who moved from Henderson Co., NC to Louisville MS in late 1850."

CIVIL WAR INFORMATION James Pinkney "Pink" Cagle 11th Mississippi Cavalry, Perrin's Regiment, Ferguson's Brigade D CSA Entered as a Bugler at age 16. Fought last 2 years and 8 months of war. Wounded at 2nd Battle of Bull Run. Born April 26, 1846, Henderson, NC; Died October 31, 1927, Louisville, MS. Son of Charles Hughey Cagle (Perrin's MS) http://www.angelfire.com/pa/civilwarcagle/Pink.htm James Pinkney Cagle The following information is based on family stories about James Pinkney Cagle and was provided by Dana Meara who is related to Pink. For more information about Pink, you can contact Dana at [email protected]@aol.com Pink was a rebellious youth and kept running away to join the Confederate Troops. His father brought him home the first two times. Pink and their family slave, Henry, were captured and arrested by Union Forces while taking a wagon load of provisions and valuables to the Cagle family who had fled to the country during an invasion of Louisville. Pink was taken to the house where the Union Officers were staying but the lady of the house helped him escape the next day. (Henry was taken elsewhere but made his way home in a few weeks.) Pink rejoined his family, but left during the night, made his way to CSA forces under Capt. Metts and enlisted. (He was a bugler and in group pictures found in publications, he carried his bugle to all CSA reunions.) At this point, Charles Cagle instructed a young slave named Jerry to go with Pink. Both men made it through the War and eventually returned to Louisville, MS. Pink was wounded at the Second Battle of Bull Run (Manassas) and it is said that Jerry carried him on his back for a very long distance to get medical treatment. Pink also had his horse shot out from under him during another battle at Bethel's Church, GA. Jerry and Pink remained friends all their life. When Jerry died, all Cagles attended his funeral at a small church outside Louisville. After Pink returned to Louisville (after time in GA and TX) he was associated with his father in several businesses, blacksmith, grist mill, small manufacturing. I believe that Jerry always worked with them, also. Pink was captured, along with his Cavalry Unit, escorting Jefferson Davis at Washington, GA at the end of the War. He was released from prison camp at Forsythe, GA in May 1865. PHOTO of James Pinkney Cagle in the center holding the flag. Next to him is his uncle Dr. William Henry Harrison Richardson.
