Letter, March 14, 1862, Edmond Powell, Camp Wynne's Mill, to ''My dear Mother'' [Cloe], Lake Jackson, 4 pp., regarding his regiment's military preparations and activities in Virginia: ''We have been on the Peninsula five or six months and have not got into a fight yet . . . Col. Ward received orders this evening to march towards New Port News. . . I do not know wether they will have any fighting to do or not, for our steamer the Merrimac used up their (the Yankees) war boats, so bad, I think they are afraid to shew their faces. The Merrimac sank one of the Yankees first class Frigates and burnt another besides injuring one or two more. . . I have been unhealthy for a good while, from being exposed to the weather, which has been very bad. We commenced building winter quarters in december but, I did not get into a house before February . . . you can judge for yourself what kind of weather we have in Virginia. . . I get a plenty to eat and drink (I do not mean whiskey). . . Give my respects to all the people on both Plantations. Tell Aunt Peggy I have not forgot that Yankees head yet, the first battle I get into, I am going to try and crack one over with my rifle. I will not take the trouble to bring his head home; but I will bring a lock of hair. . .''

Letter, August 24, 1861, J. H. Kirkman, Camp Yancey, Warrington, Florida, to ''My Dear Cousin'' [Ellen Call Long], 3 pp., regarding military preparations for war: ''. . . we are at present very busy in repairing our batteries [and] have been drilling nearly all day at Battallion Drill at double quick. . . There is a rumor. . . that we are to fight here in ten days or two weeks. . . He (Gen. Bragg) is letting those who are unfit for duty have discharge. . . Some suppose to select the best drilled Regiments to be the storming party. Ergo, we are exerting ourselves to the utmost as we wish to be selected. There is to be a Mississippian shot here next month, for killing a Sergeant whilst in the discharge of his duty. I am expecting, every day, an order . . . to join McFarland's company in the 4th Ala. Regt, whither I am very anxious to be transferred. But intend remaining here to participate in the Pickens fight if it is to come off soon. . . I wish to be at the taking of Washington City. I do hope they will fight here soon, as I am very tired waiting. . . If I go to Virginia I will seek out cousin Mary's husband. . .''
