Bettes, William H., fl. 1862-1865

Autograph letter signed

Title: to Lodema

Writes from Camp Chase. A warm and spring like morning; it is raining very gently. Located in a very fertile portion of Ohio, but it is not nearly as pleasant as other parts of Ohio are. Writes that "no hills in any direction are visible. There is not so much thrift nor neatness nor enterprises manifested here by the people as on the Reserve." Misses the neat and comfortable farm dwellings and the tidy yards and gardens. Judging from what he can see in the vicinity of the camp, there is not much fruit growing. All the men except for Luther Dickinson are healthy. There is nothing new…

Autograph letter signed

Title: to Lodema

Encamped about a mile from the Thoroughfare Gap, but the army all appears to be on the move. Yesterday morning, a couple of the Indiana Cavalry came in and told the army that Major Stedman and about 80 men of the 6th Ohio Cavalry that went to Fredericksburg, Virginia had been taken as prisoners. While on the road, the Colonel sent a dispatch stating that Major Stedman and his command had got back to Washington Junction and had taken 20 prisoners but lost two men. Pushed through Louisville yesterday. The men had a night of rest last night, their first since a week from last Friday. They…

Autograph letter signed

Title: to Lodema

Left Gainesville, Virginia yesterday at 5PM and is now between Centerville and Fairfax, Virginia. On the way, they passed the memorable battlefield of Bull Run. Encamped about six miles west of Centerville; they are now about four miles east of that place and comfortably encamped in the woods. Have their tent up and plenty of hay for their bed. They have "good soft bread, good butter, good fries, good coffee and milk for supper tonight and we have enough for breakfast. We live on the best when it can be had." Feels that the public will no longer be "bored with the old stereotyped phrase…

Autograph letter signed

Title: to Lodema

Has not received any letters from home this week but expects there is one or two on the road. They are encamped on the Chantilly Plantation between Fairfax, Virginia and Centerville, Ohio. When he last wrote, the Army was up at Aldie, Virginia. Ordered to march to Thoroughfare Gap, where they stayed for one day, and then ordered to march to Gainesville, Virginia. The Army arrived in Gainesville around 10 o'clock and remained there until five o'clock, when all the troops had passed and their war guard came up. Started for Centerville and passes over the historic Battlefield of Bull Run,…

Bettes, William H., fl. 1862-1865

Autograph letter signed

Title: to Lodema

Writes from Chantilly Camp. Received a letter from his family and was very glad to hear that they are all well at home. Writes that it appears Wilford Merriman is doomed to suffer as long as he lives. Glad to hear that Eusebus Austin is likely to succeed in getting his quota of men because he is a good man and would make a good officer. His wife wrote about sending his trunk by Eusebus, but Bettes does not think that this is the best idea. Needs two pairs of drawers, one pair of socks, one pair of pants, a shirt, and a quilt sent to him. Finds it very difficult to get clothing while…
