General Jackson went to the convent himself to thank the nuns for their prayers: "By the blessing of heaven, directing the valor of the troops under my command, one of the most brilliant victories in the annals of war was obtained."
General Jackson tog selv til klosteret for at takke nonnerne for deres bønner: "Med himmelens velsignelse, som ledede mine troppers tapperhed, blev en af de mest strålende sejre i krigens historie vundet."
