Charlie Anderson : Tom, what's happening? Virginia's losing, isn't she?
Dr. Tom Witherspoon : Looks that way Charlie.
Charlie Anderson : Well, how do you feel about it all?
Dr. Tom Witherspoon : I was born in Virginia. Lived here all my life. Raised three sons and two daughters under her flag. My oldest son, Paul, is buried somewhere in Pennsylvania.
Charlie Anderson : I'm sorry. I didn't know that.
Dr. Tom Witherspoon : They say Gettysburg is where he fell. At a place called Little Round Top. My youngest boy came home last week with tuberculosis. He won't see another Christmas. My third son rides with General Forrest. I don't know where they are. You were asking how I feel about it all. That's the only way I know how to answer you.
