There's a story about the yankee soldiers who captured Jefferson Davis. They were transporting him north, toward the prison where he would spend two years, not charged with a crime.

Passing some Confederate veterans traveling home, the blue belly taunted them: "Hey, Johnny Reb, we've got your president."

"Yessir," the butternut soldier replied, "and the devil's got yours."

Enough said.
