Printed letter
Title: To My Fellow Soldiers (Circular Letter)
Gen. "Black Jack" Logan encourages his Union troops, writing from "Headquarters, 3rd Division, 17th Army Corps" in Memphis, TN: "The day is not far distant, when traitors and cowards North and South, will cower before the indignation of an outraged people. March Bravely Forward! Nerve your strong arms to the task of overthrowing every obstacle in the pathway of victory until with shouts of triumph the last gun is fired that proclaims us a United People under the old Flag and one Government. Patriot soldiers!"
