Description

There are two letters from a soldier W. S. Whitney (eligible signed) from company E, 44th Massachusetts regiment serving in New Burne NC. The first short letter demonstrates his enthusiasm as he prepares to go on his first expedition. The second letter is quite long (12 pages) and depicts the battlefield as a sketch on pages 11 and 12. The letter describes in detail the conflict and his part in it. Letter is dated November 14th 1862. A great read.
