              <text>                    Mobile Ala. May 26th 1865&#13;
    My dear Mother&#13;
            The telegraph will tell you&#13;
quickly of the sad catastrophe that yesterday befel Mobile-&#13;
It will not  inform you of the safety of your boy- For this&#13;
you must await the slower motions of the mail though&#13;
I use the first one, which closes at 10 o’clock this morning-&#13;
About 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon there occurred I think &#13;
one of the most terrific explosions on record – every house in the&#13;
city was shaken as if there had been an earthquake + for &#13;
a mile from the great disaster the crash of broken windows&#13;
+ plaster from the walls made each person for a moment&#13;
suppose his own house tumbling into the cellar.&#13;
I  was in the office when my boys ran into the room crying,&#13;
“Paymaster the house is falling on us”! I rushed up to the &#13;
cupola which commands a fine view of the city + river.&#13;
being (it was the signal station for the rebel army. ) A great&#13;
mass of smoke + dust filled the air, over the military ordnance&#13;
depot, which had blown up. Up + down the levee + its parallel&#13;
street were horses running, buggies upset, army waggons&#13;
upside down + men at their wits ends with fright + wonder.&#13;
It was a scene of the wildest confusion I ever witnessed &#13;
or expect to again. Descending to the street I went&#13;
part way toward the burning ruin near enough to see &#13;
the steamers wrapped flames close by it + hear the&#13;
bursting shells that every instant warned the crowd away.&#13;
&#13;
[page 2]&#13;
The side walks were covered with broken glass so that at &#13;
every step I trod on it, even the sashes were thrown down&#13;
+ heavy doors barred + bolted flew into the street by force&#13;
of the concussion + the roofs of large warehouses had &#13;
fallen in.  This was a half mile distant. Toward evening &#13;
with two others I ventured nearer, + the scene became&#13;
fairly appalling.  Squares upon squares of warehouses &#13;
were thrown flat to the ground, portions of walls only left &#13;
standing + these so nearly demolished, that we standing &#13;
in the street, we could look across whole blocks of what had &#13;
been buildings. A heavy force was already at work&#13;
overhauling the debris, + every now + then a dead or&#13;
dying human body was dragged from under it. The shells &#13;
were still bursting = the fragments flying in such fashion &#13;
we did not deem it prudent to remain there long.&#13;
I saw one poor negro girl just alive rescued from under&#13;
a slate roof her babe had been killed in her arms.&#13;
The loss of life must be great. how great will perhaps never&#13;
be known for some were blown to atoms some burned &#13;
to cinder, some drowned in the river + the mass of those&#13;
in the vicinity of the explosion were laborers paroled &#13;
prisoners returning to their houses, = colored persons from&#13;
the country who were flocking as they thought from &#13;
slavery into freedom instead of into destruction.  hundreds&#13;
perhaps whose names are “written in heaven” but of whom&#13;
there exists no earthly register. The fire is not yet&#13;
subdued or has broken out anew for as I write the bells&#13;
are ringing the alarm + an engine rattles by.&#13;
&#13;
[page 3]&#13;
Now I will leave this painful subject for something more agreable&#13;
though it is difficult to detach my own thoughts from a calamity so&#13;
near + of which the “end is not yet”.&#13;
I wrote you of my shift to shore + comfortable quarters in Mr.&#13;
Sage’s “Ice House”. There I ate slept + worked night + day having &#13;
my bed in the same building + meals sent to me. But the seclusion&#13;
was too complete for health or profit. I found it impossible to&#13;
keep regular office hours because as it was known my work shop&#13;
+ dwelling were the same. officers did not hesitate to visit me on&#13;
business before I was dressed, after I retired + at every&#13;
hour of the day between. Not a meal could be taken without interruption&#13;
and what was worse than all I had no one to share it with me +&#13;
it feels stingy to be always eating alone. So I cast about for&#13;
a boarding place but in vain found nothing to suit in fact nothing&#13;
at all. every available spot in the city seeming to be covered&#13;
by some earlier bird there. I gave up the search in despair. Thus&#13;
fortune came to me. Last Sunday a gentleman called at the&#13;
office introducing himself as “Mr. Meslier” and his friend as&#13;
Brig. Gen. Cockerell of the confederate army late in command&#13;
of the defenses at Blakely + Spanish Fort. the only man who&#13;
stood between our army + the city of mobile + a most gallant&#13;
rebel. And what do you think! he actually wished me to supply&#13;
him with a suit of navy flannel. This I had no right to do +&#13;
told him so, but was “so happy to clothe him in union blue that I&#13;
would charge myself with the flannel” + in that way supply him&#13;
He staid + talked with me an hour or more + pleased me much.&#13;
He seems to have fought from principle (although I think in error)&#13;
but having submitted the questions of southern rights to the decision of&#13;
&#13;
[page 4]&#13;
arms + been thoroughly conquered he now yields himself&#13;
cheerfully to the dominion of his conquerors + holds himself&#13;
in duty bound to support the Union Government as faithfully&#13;
as he has done the confederate. He believes too that the southern&#13;
soldiers taken with “arms in their hands” will be found better&#13;
citizens of the republic than the “skulkers” + that having once&#13;
surrendered they may be trusted for ever after. He talked&#13;
of the leading rebel generals with whom he had served in a&#13;
manner most interesting to me and I was really sorry when&#13;
he bade me “good morning” to go away. In course of the conversation,&#13;
Mr. Meslier asked me if I knew an officer who would like board in a &#13;
“nice private family”. I told him I wished that very thing myself.&#13;
Next day he called again + instead of sending me to that other&#13;
“nice private family” invited me to his own and here I am today&#13;
once more enjoying the luxury of a home. The family consists&#13;
of Mr + Mrs Meslier daughter about twenty + another twelve or fourteen,&#13;
+ son of my own age. Mrs Meslier is an excellent woman, &#13;
of northern descent + cultivated. Mr Meslier is french + the &#13;
whole family have spent much time in Europe were wealthy&#13;
+ a short time ago had I am told one of the prettiest houses&#13;
in Alabama. But it was burned over their heads and the&#13;
estate now left them for the present avails them nothing. Like&#13;
a majority of southern people the success of our armies + change&#13;
 in currency has made them almost penniless. Yet we manage&#13;
to live well enough in a pleasant house. Both father + son have&#13;
been officers in the rebellion lately paroled. So you see I am in a&#13;
nest of "Confeds" and in great danger of becoming a rebel myself&#13;
to judge by the "company I keep". But I know them no longer as&#13;
&#13;
[page 1, top]&#13;
rebels, they are friends, and I wish never to hear the name so much&#13;
as mentioned among us here. They are punished severely enough&#13;
already. Upon our northern traitors who have had their good things&#13;
let the curse of the future descend. Your aff. Cornelius.</text>

              <text>“Wilderness 2nd” S. of Petersburg Va.&#13;
Friday June 24th, 1864&#13;
&#13;
Dear Mother + Lucy-&#13;
    I never was more pleased with any&#13;
literary production I have read than with Lucy’ letter of the 20th&#13;
inst. just received. I read it through as eagerly as you opened&#13;
her box and when I came to “p.p. Lucy” I turned right back&#13;
and read it all over just as carefully as though I was committing&#13;
it to memory. All the time I was reading there was the heaviest&#13;
“diapason of the cannonade” for double bass accompaniment&#13;
that I ever heard. There seems to be a heavy fire along&#13;
the whole line and I look for a guard engagement before&#13;
night. We have been under fire most of the time since I&#13;
have been with the Regt. but we have had no real battle&#13;
yet.  In a skirmish on the 22nd “I” Co lost 2 killed 2 very &#13;
seriously wounded and 1 prisoner. 2 were wounded on the&#13;
20th so you see we are not rusting in the fortifications so much&#13;
as we were. We see nothing know nothing of what is &#13;
going on beyond our own Division movements hardly&#13;
more than our own Regt.  It is serious business and&#13;
many will be left here but I hope to live it out and &#13;
see you all some day up in old Conn.  Don’t lose heart&#13;
at the danger but keep up good heart and look to the Father&#13;
&#13;
[page 2]&#13;
who has us all in charge.  He will bring it out right at last.&#13;
You speak only of the uniform suit, of the contents of the &#13;
box. Were there no pictures that were better than the “suit&#13;
of blue” no diary, no watch, no books + of course though&#13;
they were all present or accounted for only one has a little&#13;
curiosity to hear from his pets Well take care of all and&#13;
write me great long letters as often as you possibly can.&#13;
You must have heard from me in the field before this&#13;
for I have written twice since I got to my Co. and&#13;
I will write as often as I can while here.&#13;
I remember in one of your letters you spoke of our being&#13;
Artillery which I saw you was laboring under a delusion.&#13;
No! The 1st stole a march on us and got all the guns and&#13;
we have only our rifles, are just nothing but light infantry&#13;
Some of the boys were and are disappointed at this more&#13;
especially as we have been out more than 30 days but it&#13;
does no  good. All the Regts in our old DeRussey’ Division&#13;
but the 1st C.A. are the same as we so we cannot complain.&#13;
We shall be infantry until the close of this campaign &#13;
at least think we may or may not return to the Defenses.&#13;
Col. Mackenzie lost 2 fingers in the skirmish of the 22nd&#13;
so Lt. Col. Hubbard is again in command. We all like him&#13;
and our brigade Cmdr Col. Upton of the 121st N.Y.&#13;
&#13;
[page 3]&#13;
So mortality is not confined to the army and one of my pet&#13;
brownies is gone. I am sorry to hear it indeed.&#13;
I had a kind of pet here in Co “D” a little boy that ran&#13;
away from home and enlisted under an assumed name.&#13;
We always called him “Bully Brooks” and he was a smart&#13;
little fellow he had tugged along and kept up by the hordes&#13;
until the 22nd where he went out on picket and yesterday morning&#13;
he was brought in dead, shot the evening before. Poor little boy&#13;
how I pitied his parents as we buried him in the piney woods&#13;
to the music of musketry, how they must sorrow for him.&#13;
We don’t have much regularity in hours here sometimes&#13;
march all night and sleep all day then march and sleep &#13;
by watches all through the 24 hours. but it is warm&#13;
and dry and so far we have been as comfortable as &#13;
possible under the circumstances. One thing is unpleasant&#13;
I have not had a drop of good water since I left Alex.&#13;
but I get on nicely with coffee and we have lots of rations&#13;
I suppose you wish to know how I bear fire and how&#13;
it affects me. Well, I bear it a good deal as the others&#13;
do. I dread shelling just exactly as I used to dread&#13;
a heavy thunder shower and feel just the same under&#13;
it that I did when the lightning was near and sharp.&#13;
Bullets I am less afraid of than some and more than some.&#13;
&#13;
[page 4]&#13;
There is nothing pleasant in or about either of course&#13;
but I suppose one might grow to be considerably&#13;
indifferent to both but it requires good nerves and a&#13;
pretty complete control of them.  Col. Upton shows&#13;
as little sensitiveness in regard to flying missiles&#13;
as any one I have seen. He will ride his horse steadily&#13;
where no troops can stand steadily. Very cool man.&#13;
Enough and more than enough of this business now&#13;
for a word about your affairs. How goes the school&#13;
you don’t say much about it. Who are the pupils this year&#13;
I have quite forgotten who would be likely to be on the stage&#13;
now. I might have been away from Warren a dozen&#13;
years and not more entirely have forgotten all but my&#13;
own immediate folk. Where are Eunice Harriet Alice?&#13;
They coming home to remain? Augustine sent me his best&#13;
compliments and congratulations, and proposed a glass&#13;
of wine on the straps I think but we will have to wait&#13;
a bit for that I reckon. Homer, Miner and Austin&#13;
were well the last day I called on “H”. They are now out&#13;
on picket. Austin had his wash basin knocked over by a &#13;
3in. shell the other day while he washing his hands.&#13;
It is very warm down in these swamps but the nights&#13;
are cool. My valise is up with the trains excuse all pencil&#13;
and remember me ever your aff son + brother Homer.&#13;

              <text>Ordnance Office&#13;
HeadQr  3rd Brig Hardin + Div.&#13;
Fort Baker D.C. June 24 1865&#13;
&#13;
    Dear Toot:&#13;
        You go into a labored &#13;
argument to prove the total ineligibility&#13;
of a certain nameless “source of local comfort”&#13;
and close it by gravely announcing that&#13;
spite of “sanguine temperament” and every&#13;
other unredeemable characteristic feature&#13;
“I shall not object if you wish to include&#13;
her” That is pretty encouraging to be sure.&#13;
You are a pretty nice woman are you not?&#13;
I like your style its about Hyper___&#13;
    Silia back in town that begins&#13;
to seem like times of yon - Agnes + Silia &#13;
with you and Mary.  Flora Eunice daily&#13;
expected  Miss Henrietta is not coming I &#13;
presume. Even you have given up that also&#13;
is tangible at last as I did years ago.&#13;
&#13;
[page 2]&#13;
Fort Wagner the post of Co. “H” is close by Hdqs&#13;
and I see the boys daily. They are pretty irate&#13;
over our detention here and Miner uses&#13;
his lungs and tongue freely on the subject &#13;
as is his want.&#13;
    There are some incidents connected with &#13;
my recent visit in New York which I do &#13;
not care to commit to paper but which &#13;
besides amusing you might serve to explain &#13;
some of my serving inconsistencies and &#13;
neglects.  I shall be pleased to give you &#13;
an unabridged edition of the whole story &#13;
verbally but I haven’t the time for professing&#13;
now if I had the disposition. So you must&#13;
continue to believe that the future proprietress&#13;
of the ancestral mansion of the&#13;
family has been neglected by a young&#13;
rattle headed cousin from the army for&#13;
a less worthy though well enough sort of a &#13;
body from the same old family. Amen&#13;
Did’nt my report contain anything concerning&#13;
The Orpha – it should for I drank a deal of &#13;
strawberry lemonade with her it was sweet &#13;
&#13;
[page 3]&#13;
Your next thrust is a home one but it &#13;
serves one right.  I am ashamed to think &#13;
that I am not a gentleman.  What you &#13;
said about Mrs. Reynolds versus Flora or &#13;
Eunice is true and pity tis tis true. I &#13;
intend to cultivate my say on that point &#13;
and hope in time to arrive at a  point &#13;
where I can treat all ladies + gentlemen&#13;
alike whether they are friends or no friends &#13;
but up to this time it has required more &#13;
dissimilation than I have been able to&#13;
acquire.  I will require only 2 or 3 gentle&#13;
reminders like that last of yours to do &#13;
the work for me.  These reminders acting&#13;
as daily monitors you see keeping the &#13;
subject always before me.&#13;
    Aunt Phebe is a saint and if she&#13;
cannot like all her relatives how am I a &#13;
sinner expected to? but no that is not &#13;
it I must treat every body the same as &#13;
though I did love them.  All right I’ll &#13;
try.  Watch and see if there is not an&#13;
improvement in that respect when you see me next.&#13;
&#13;
[page 4]&#13;
Little as you seemed to expect it &#13;
your letter came through to me very direct &#13;
but to give you a little more terse address &#13;
I enclose a card on which is all &#13;
that is really requisite for an envelope&#13;
besides the stamp and your Private No.&#13;
    I am reading Warren “Ten Thousand&#13;
A Year” which seems to be interesting as &#13;
far as I have been in it I read the &#13;
July “Atlantic” and “Our Little Folks” and&#13;
am also rereading Enoch Arden. I bought &#13;
Cozzen’s “Sparrowgrass Papers” yesterday and &#13;
shall read them up soon. I have a nice &#13;
room and desk all by myself here and&#13;
it seems as though I might enjoy myself &#13;
until September pretty nice if I do not get&#13;
this malarious fever on me that and &#13;
the ague are very bad about  Wm +Alex.&#13;
and probably we shall not altogether escape &#13;
their net. I hope we may until our time &#13;
is out. Hoping to hear from you soon &#13;
I am as ever your respectful brother&#13;
        Gub&#13;
&#13;
