Which is why I said 3, cuz he died of a wound taken in battle that took off
his left arm. Took about 3 or 4 days I assume, sepsis.
Excerpt from the Wikipedia article:
"He was thought to be out of harm's way, but unknown to the doctors, he
already had classic symptoms of pneumonia, complaining of a sore chest. This
soreness was mistakenly thought to be the result of his rough handling in
the battlefield evacuation. Jackson died of complications of pneumonia on
May 10, 1863."
Assuming the Wikipeida article is correct it is no wonder there are
misconceptions about Fedora. :-)
