1865 Blog- Letter Home
Dear Ellen, On April 2nd, we, the Union army, stormed through the Confederate capital, Richmond, Virginia. The feeling of burning and stomping down the heart of the Confederacy was exhilarating. The officials in the Confederacy government ran, leaving the sought-after city for our taking. For the first time, I felt truly happy to be a part of this bloody war. The tide of the war had turned. Four days later, we surrounded Lee's army at Saylor's Creek, outnumbering the Rebs 5-to-1 , and inflicting 6,000 casualties. Lee still has 3/4 of his army left, but he is expected to surrender to Grant soon. Soon I will be back home in Pennslyvania in a united Union. I will be able to see you and the 3 kids for the first time in years.
