BATTLE OF GAINES MILL, SOLDIER'S
BATTLE OF GAINES MILL, SOLDIER'S LETTEROptimistic six-page letter written by a Union soldier and dated June 22, 1862, five days before the Battle of Gaines Mill, aka the Battle of Chickahominy River. Evidently it was intended for publication, as it was addressed to "Mssrs Editors" and titled "Banks of the Chickahominy." Signed "Rambler" at the end. Very interesting content, including accounts of alleged Confederate atrocities, such as the killing of a prisoner -- "[he] refused to mount his horse and was shot and left dead on troadside." It ends, "When the great battle will come off, it is hard to say ... it is not too distant however, and when it does come off, it will be one of the most fearful contests the world ever witnessed, and although the enemy have every advantage in knowledge of the country, position and numbers, they will be awfully thrashed by our brave boys and driven howling through Richmond like beaten spaniels." The writer's prediction was off, as the Confederates won the battle decisively. Pagesmeasure 12-3/8" x 7-7/8". Letter came out of estate with the included CDV photo of a soldier whose identity is unknown, though it is presumed that he is the writer. See images. This item can be shipped in-house.
