wesley`s name is engraved on the Monument at Point Lookout maryland...

The official reason for death was Chronic Diarrhea,but james Bullis,who was there with him said he was starved to death...Wesley was buried in a mass grave near the prison camp in an area noted only as 1004 B,how many men were buried there is unknown,because the union prison Guards were notorious liars...They wanted to hide the exact numbers of deaths that occured in the Northern prison camps Most of which came from intentional starving.
