Williams, George M., fl. 1862
Autograph letter signed
Title: to his wife
Heard cannon firing in the morning and suspects (but does not know for a fact) that it was a "scary sight" since it lasted for about four hours. Thinks "the enemy" wants to enter Richmond. Believes "Jeff" (Davis) and his cabinet are a "failure." He mentions that the Southern states are dissatisfied.
