A FTER THE BATTLE OF MANASSAS IN LATE JULY, I RECEIVED A LETTER from my first cousin,
Maggie Martin. Two years younger than I, she was a companion of Mary’s. Her family lived
just a mile south of Bethel and down the road toward Lexington. Maggie was convinced she was
mighty1 attractive and thus was quite a coquette, with a
porcelain2 complexion3 and her hair
twisted in brown ringlets. Her letter demonstrated how those at home had no idea of what we’d
lived through during that terrible July day in Manassas. She wrote some silliness, asking if we
were putting on plays in camp or having dance socials with local girls, and if there were very
many tall boys like me. She said she loved to see tall boys having to stoop lower to put their
arms around girls, and she complained there now was nothing but “little bits” of boys left at
home. What could I possibly say in response?
I could have told her about arriving at Bull Run on July 21 in the midst of
cannons4 bellowing5,
artillery7 rounds blasting, and smoke on the field that blinded my vision. And that we were the
victors of a one-day battle that we believed had won the Southern states the right to
secede8. I
could have told her that.
But there wasn’t much else I could say that she could bear to hear. I couldn’t tell her that the
night before dawn on July 21 was the worst I had ever spent. For eighteen hours we marched
north from Winchester to the quiet village of Piedmont Station, located at a railroad
junction9.
We waited there until the next morning when freight trains arrived to carry our
