services may gladden and cheer many other hearts all over our broad
land.

NOTE.--I may be mistaken in the name of the Captain who made the brief
visit to Andersonville, February 10, 1869.--See page 17. I shall regret
if I have not properly honored one whose bearing was so gallant and
gentlemanly. H. W. P.

Transcriber's Notes:

Passages in italics are indicated by _underscore_.

Additional spacing after some of the quotes is intentional to indicate

presented in the original text.

The following misprints have been corrected:
"aad" corrected to "and" (page 6)
"Confedearte" corrected to "Confederate" (page 6)
"immedately" corrected to "immediately" (page 14)
"Andersonvile" corrected to "Andersonville" (page 17)
"sacreligious" corrected to "sacrilegious" (page 17)
"Govvernment" corrected to "Government" (page 21)
"cherrs" corrected to "cheers" (page 28)

All other spelling is presented as in the original.

When referring to a specific county, the "c" in the word "county" has
been capitalized for standard presentation.
