A common soldier's story, of the men fighting to defend Confederate interests at Vicksburg in late 1862 through July 1863. Using a number of letters home, reminiscences, records and diaries kept during the long hours in the hot and filthy 'ditches', it presents a story of sacrifice and adaptability, of boredom and submission to inevitability.
It is the design of this book to preserve for the people of Franklin County an imperishable record of its early history — now existing only in scattering and detached papers and records, which are every year wasting away. To write the history of a single county, may to some appear like a very small business; while to others it is considered very desirable that someone should do so in every county. How else are the names and memory of our early settlers and friends to be preserved? And who is there that would not be pleased to look back, or to have his children look back, upon some record of his early days, and of departed friends? . It has been the writer's object in this compilation, to give a correct statement of all events worthy of remembrance, with their proper dates, so as to form a book of ready reference, such as will be convenient and interesting to all residents of the county.
