The Baltimore American, of May 29, 1892, in a long article describing how General Hill was killed, reproduces the account of his courier, Sished in the Southern Historical Society Papers, Vol.
XI, December, 1883, pages 564-9. and also a statement from Corporal John W. Mauk, of Company F, One-Hundred-and-Thirty-eighth Pennsylvania Infantry, who claims that he fired the fatal shot, and who, at the time, was in company with Private Daniel Wolford, of the same company.
Mauk's statement is as follows:
On the morning of the 2d of April, 1865, after the rebel works had been carried in the front, the main portion of the troops deployd me if I knew whom I had killed.
I told him that I did not. He said: You have killed General A. P. Hill, of the Confederate army.
