A propos de cet article

A substantial Civil War letter with interesting and quite vivid content written by Charles Morfoot, 101st Ohio Infantry Volunteers, on June 26, 1864 at Altoona Pass, Georgia to his wife Elizabeth back home in Bucyrus, Crawford County, Ohio. It's orange envelope has a pink 3 cent stamp with the bust of George Washignton and is postmarked "Nashville, July 7, 1864". Morfoot had been a bricklayer and enlisted in August, 1862. He saw action at Perryville, Murfreesboro, Chickamauga, Resaca, Kennesaw Mountain, Jonesboro, Franklin and Nashville (see Dyer, p. 1541). The letter is written on ledger paper that is approximately 5 x 3" and was stitched together at the corner. It is in legible pencil, and is 6 leaves, or 12 pages. ~Some highlights include: "We are on the front line and on the skirmish line it has been more civil last night than usual there was not much shooting all night, we have to keep lo in our ditches. We had lots fun talking with the reb skirmish line at night" || ".they have broke up Morgan's Band and captured half his command and retaken most of his prisoners" || ".our regiment loss some, I think not more than 8 or 10, we were not on the front line. our loss is heavy altogether they have been carrying off wounded ever since it commenced and are still there are not more than one hundred men at that work. I judge our loss altogether at one thousand. It was attacked at 3 different places." || ".it is hard for our wounded. Many living in the hot sun a long time and many perhaps that we can't get at for our men went right up to their works. One color barer was bayoneted on the works and their color captured. I think this is a lesson for our Generals not to charge on works of that kind some of them I know was killed, General Harker." || "One think more our Lieut. got a bullet through his beard and his thumb and skinned it a little. I was lying near him, one other of our Co. has a hole shot through his coat collar."~~.…
