Private ANTHONY WEBSTER SOUTHALL, of Amelia County, Virginia, matriculated in 1844 and remained one year. He was in training for the profession of law when war was declared with Mexico, and against the wishes of his family he left the Institute, and joined the company from his county which was attached to the First Virginia Regiment.
He served through the campaign, but ruined his health, and died soon after returning home, from the effects of his severe service in Mexico.
Anthony Webster Southall was a son of Dr. Phillip T. Southall, and his wife, Elizabeth Webster, and was born in Prince Edward County, Virginia.
