Contributing Organization:: Olmsted County Historical Society
Title:: Letter from James George to his children, location unknown
Creator:: George, James
Description:: James Greorge wrote this letter from camp. He has not received mail in about a month and presumes it is because the Confederate forces control the area to the rear of his unit. He has heard of Union victories from the Potomac to the Gulf, but has no news of the enemy forces near him. He hopes Rhoda and George had a good trip home and arrived safely.
