Interesting quote from "Mosby's Rangers: A Record Of The Operations Of The Forty-Third Battalion Virginia Cavalry, From Its Organization To The Surrender"
Hi – I'm reading "Mosby's Rangers: A Record Of The Operations Of The Forty-Third Battalion Virginia Cavalry, From Its Organization To The Surrender" by James Joseph Williamson and wanted to share this quote with you.
"our picket gave the alarm and a solitary Jersey wagon coming along was overhauled and brought in. In it was a Mr. Dunham and wife, returning from an unsuccessful trip to Alexandria, where they had gone to purchase groceries, but had been refused permission by the authorities. We not only gave them our sympathy — something that is freely given by most persons to their fellow creatures in want — but we also gave a more substantial expression of feeling which was more gratifying to this couple. We loaded up their wagon free of cost and sent them on their way rejoicing."
