Letter from George at camp near Mill Creek, Tenn., to his sister Eliza, 1863 February 5

 File — Box: 1, Folder: 3, item: 2
Identifier: II

George complains about the erratic weather patterns in the South. He is amazed at the tenacity of his Southern opponents, writing that, if the Union army had experienced as many disasters and defeats as they have that it would become totally demoralized and broken up before this time, but they stick to it like grim death.
