Enos Dinkle had four sons, who serv-
ed in the Confederate Army--Mr.
Lewis Dinkle, of Charles Town; Mr..
Peter Dinkle, Mr.. John Dinkle, and
Mr.. Enos Dinkle, Of near Winches-
ter. Mr.. Enos Dinkle volunteered
at the age of II years. These four
sons served in General Rosser's Bri-
pade, and all four were in the Battle
of Gettysburg. The youngest son,
Mr.. Enos Dinkle, was shot in the
forehead in this battle and died in
stantly. His body now lies in the
Confederate Cemetery, in Winches-
ter. Virginia. Mr.. and Mrs. Enos
Dinkle, of Pleasant Hill, were the
grandparents of Mr.. Lewis X. Din
kle, associated with "The Review"
