The article focuses on the martyrdom of Sam Davis, a soldier of the Confederate States of America, who was honored posthumously by erecting a memorial in the state of Tennessee. In the war of 1861, he got enrolled as a scout and did extraordinarily well. Ultimately, he was entrusted with a mission of delivering some important military papers to some officers, but was captured by enemies and ultimately led to his execution.
