Price Letter | Civil War Letters of Russell County |
Transcribed From the Richmond, Va. Dispatch, 16 March 1902, page 11: "A List of the Officers and Privates and Brief History To the Editor of the Dispatch: Will you kindly publish in your Confederate Column the enclosed roll of Company C, 37th Regiment, Virginia Infantry? By so doing you will oblige a few survivors of that old company, which was a gallant as any that ever kept step to the music of 'Dixie' during the sixties. And right her I want to thank the Dispatch for its generous defence of the worthy Confederate soldier. We claim the paper as our official organ, as some of us commenced reading it in the camps and trenches around Richmond, and we value it greatly. I wish every Confederate was a subscriber to it. C.B.
