It was the time of Civil War when Abraham Lincoln had sent his regiment of soldiers to Rhode Island in order to dump down the rebellion.

Sullivan Ballou served as the contingent officer in American army. He wrote a very emotional final letter to his beloved wife Sarah. The letter echoed his patriotic fervor towards America. The twitch between love for his beloved wife and his duty towards protecting the motherland was emotionally portrayed.

This letter was never mailed but it was given to his widow after it was found in his suitcase. Sullivan died in the battle as he was hit by cannon fire. His body was exhumed and decapitated. Charred ashes were the remains found in the war field. This letter portrays a universal truth that courage does not mean gaining victory but it means facing Death for the cause of victory.
