The McEwen girls stole enough time to visit the battlefield after the Battle of Franklin carrying cups and a jug of water to refresh the men not yet moved. Their home was so crowded with Yankee wounded even the youngest children helped with the nursing. When the Federals moved their wounded they gave each of the girls a crisp five dollar note, a fortune in those days when the South was feeling the pinch of hard times.
