Excerpt from Extracts of Letters of Major Gen'l Bryan Grimes to His Wife

The matter contained in the succeeding pages was never intended for publication. It represents a short sketch of incidents, and participation in the late war, by the late major-general bryan grimes, and extracts from letters to his wife, written from the camp, and on the fields of battle, and such other matters of record and interest as have seemed to me fit and proper to be inserted therein.

General grimes had for years after the sur render determined to write out his recollections of the war, solely for the benefit, pleasure and curiosity. Of his children and their posterity, to be read in after years, with no view whatever of their publica tion, but simply to be kept as a matter of record in his family. He had commenced this work, as shown in his original manuscript, and, as far as executed, it is printed in the following pages.
