Brave Dogs and Civil War Vignettes Across a Fractured Front
A New Orleans telegram and letters from the Civil War era recount a brave trench dog guarding a fallen Pennsylvania sergeant near Fredericksburg, a lieutenant’s daring handkerchief gesture prompting rebel surrender, and a Wisconsin sheriff noting Wells H. Blodget’s steadiness. The page also includes poems and human-interest vignettes on misery, birds, and idle wartime letters.
