American Civil War
TWENTIETH REGIMENT INFANTRY
Near Blain's Cross Roads, East Tennessee, Jan. 1, 1864. "As your former correspondent with this brigade ('J. T. M. ') has had the misfortune to 'fail to connect, ' in other words has been captured, and is now paying his devoirs to Miss ' Libbie Prison, ' perhaps you will consider it no intrusion if another—an old friend—takes up his fallen mantle. Since the late operations in East Tennessee I have seen so much in the northern journals that was absolutely faIse— so much that was only partially true.
