Oakley accepted assignments at twelve different posts across central and north Mississippi from the 1870s into the late 1890s from Greenville in the state's western Delta region to Starkville and Columbus in the east and Water Valley and Holly Springs in the north until, due to failing health, settling in Winona in 1900 where he passed away in 1901.

I have not seen it for more than forty years, but the memory of it is fresh and sweet and sacred. If I were a poet, I would put its Bonaventure Cemetery into verse. It is itself a poem. There is nothing just like it elsewhere: the live-oak avenues, draped with the long sea moss, gently stirred by the soft breeze; a sky that bends in deepest blue above, with no sound to break the stillness save the faint note of a song bird in the minor key, or the whisper of a breeze like "the sighing of broken reeds" that symbolizes that of breaking hearts. Sidney Lanier might have sung the song of Bonaventure had he seen it as I have seen it. The elegance of the city and the heartiness of the country met you in the old Savannah in a way that gave you wonder and delight. " ; FAIR. Book.
