It's about a confederate sympathizer sentenced to be hung off a bridge... it's a classic! I thought of it because of this weird confluence where just before reading your Sarah post, I was looking at this translation of a German story called The Bridge, about a bunch of very young and very old boys/men protecting a bridge at the end of WWII. These are both classic war/bridge stories.
