I think the point is that the way the Civil War was fought, battle casualties often died racked by physical pain and terrifying fever dreams. And with no misericord to end the suffering. So there are more Civil War ghost stories than from other wars - a spirit that departs engulfed by agony and fear leaves a more perceptible revenant.
Okay, boys, we've run out of cannonballs. See those rounded rocks over there? I think one will fit down the barrel of this gun... (sound of black powder being poured into a cannon)
