Letters--History--19th century |
| Description | This letter is on paper that is very discolored and the writing is so faded as to be mostly unreadable by the transcriber. The last page(s) are not available for transcription, the author is unknown as is the recipient. It was written December 16, 1864. The writer spends most of the legible part of the letter lamenting the fact that the war is not the time to travel across the South. He is torn between disappointing "Ma" and the recipient of the letter. It would appear that the mother's influence prevailed as she dictated to the writer to, "wait until the war is over" to travel to Texas. |
