Parrott, Henry C., fl. 1861-1877
Autograph letter signed
Title: to sister
Henry is sorry to hear that Sophia is not well and regrets that he cannot see her unless the war ends before the fall "which seems favorable now." They marched 65 miles in knee deep mud with after 30,000 Confederates in ten days. Some of the men used the Confederate supplies for the Winchester Daily Bulletin to publish their own version and he encloses a copy. He is in command of another company whose officers were wounded at Stone River.
