Description
26TH VIRGINIA MARCHES THROUGH NORTH CAROLINA
Good content Confederate soldier's letter, 4pp. 4to., Charleston, S.C., Sep. 20, 1863 in which 2nd Lieut. Frederick H. Wolfe writes his mother. In part: "...we passed through the pitch, tar & turpentine portion in the day time...An army would starve if it had to depend on subsistence from that portion of the state...Stopped by Wilmington...The Yankees would take it if they could, as vessels are constantly running the blockade & carrying out cotton, ostensibly to Nassau but in reality to New York...Crossed the line and came into SC...The ladies waved, the men shouted & altogether were glad to leave NC...". Very good.
