SEPTEMBER 29, 1862:
Brigadier
General William “Bull” Nelson U.S.A. is shot to death by General Jefferson
Davis U.S.A. Although Nelson was unarmed, it is considered a duel since Davis
had challenged him earlier, after Nelson had called him an incompetent. The
Northern Jeff Davis remains in command, in part because the Union has use for
his name and rank as a public relations and morale booster.
