image Eagle, Shield and Flags "The Union and the Constitution". Red and blue patriotic design on cover bearing 3¢ dull red (26), two singles, small flaws, tied by corks, matching "Chester Pa. May 29, 1861" cds to Pottstown Pa., docketing reads "Jefferson Davis who has tampered with the American Eagle, will yet live to feel its claws", with original enclosure with fascinating contents "…The aspect of national affairs is at present rather dark and threatening. To me it seems pretty certain that we are going to have a bloody struggle before treason and rebellion can be guild. But judging from the resolution & determination of the Northern people, the Rebel government will be totally overthrown at some time or other, but doubtless not until after many valuable lives are lost. What a lamentable affair the assassination of Col. Ellsworth was. He is a great loss to the country, a young man of great promise and of whom much was expected in the present campaign. I saw him at the "Continental" the evening Mr. Lincoln was there. He was one of the President's attendants. George & I were upstairs, and we saw a young man pass us and enter a side door. He appeared not over 20. He was rather small & slender & quite good looking, wore one of the volunteer caps and had long black hair. We were first informed that it was Lincoln's eldest son, but afterwards ascertained it to be Col. Ellsworth. He was particularly attentive to the Presidential party and moved actively around. He struck me as being a very young man to have attained such celebrity. Many consider his act in taking down the Secession flag as reckless and daring, and I suspect think that it was a needless exposure of his person to the cowardly stealth of assassins. But his patriotic enthusiasm hurried him on into danger and to its immensity he fell a victim. They took him up on this railroad last Saturday evening. About 9 o'clock, I sat with my window open when I heard the train stop at Chester. It was very still and the train contrary to custom stopped for nearly ten minutes at the station while the Chester band struck up the "Star Spangled Banner." It sounded particularly inspiring to me. The poor unconscious Ellsworth lay dead in the cars. Not a noise was heard save the notes of the band, until it stopped, and the shrill whistle screamed out and the train moved towards Phila., amid three tremendous cheers from the populace. The incident I shall not soon forget. Enclosed I send you an account of the origin of the "Star Spangled Banner"…", reduced at left and minor edgewear, F.-V.F., a pretty cover with great contents.

Red and blue patriotic design on cover to Ranalsburg N.C. endorsed "Care Col Grier" with matching patriotic lettersheet datelined "Camp Ruffin, Aug 19/61" with some interesting war content "…We are now stationed at the Old Church, the Head Quarters of the Regiment, but I guess we will have to go back to Old Town before a great while. There is only two companies in our Regiment that are drilled at the cannons. That is our company and the Milton Blues and we have to relieve one another alternately. I would much rather stay in the Regiment. I do not think very much of the old fellow who lives at the Battery. I think he is undoubtedly one of the meanest men I ever. I would like the best in world the Yankees could get a hold of him for awhile. I would not care much if they would hang him a little. While we have never had a chance as yet to try our hand on the Yankees, and if we remain here I don't think we will very soon. The scamps are getting a little sick of their trade. If they are, we are willing. You must tell Mag that as her hopes are all blasted, she had better come on and join the Army. This is the very place for disappointed lovers, so come ahead…Sallie, you must be sure to come on you and Miss Alice. You can have the best time in the world. You will be apt to create quite a sensation in camp. I think you, I mean both of you, of course, will compare favorably with any of the young ladies who visit our camp, but we have some fast ones here…"; envelope couple stain spots and tiny edge tear, otherwise Very Fine and scarce matching C.S.A. patriotic stationery.

We heard the enemy was in two miles of us the other day, and I knew if it was so we would fight right off … we are today 65 miles from Charleston and about 40 from Savannah, but we move tomorrow to a place called Huguenot near Beaufort where the enemy have possession. I expect as soon as Gen. Lee gets his forces ready, he will attack them. I know not the day when it may be, tomorrow, tonight, next week or next month, I know not when. And I am going to try to be prepared to meet them and to fight like a brave hero intending to be crowned with victory or to die on the battlefield … There is several Regiments stationed near by that will be to our assistance when we engage…" and signed by Bryant A.

We are in ten miles of our enemy, and we don't know what minute we may be called on to fight. You must not write to me until I write to you again. We have caught some six or seven spies round about in the woods, and you may know by that there must be some prospects of having a fight.

W. E. Terrett was mustered into Capt. E. D. Fontaines Co. of the 18th Regiment Mississippi Volunteers on May 24, 1861 at Corinth, Miss. for 12 months as a private. He survived the battle of First Manassas, July 21, 1861 as his third brigade under D.R. Jones was in defensive positions and not actively engaged, however, in the battle at Leesburg, Va. or Balls Bluff as it is also known on Oct. 21, 1861, W. E. Terrett was one of 36 CSA soldiers killed. His closing statement to his friend Alfred G. Moore that "I remain your friend until death and one day day more" proved prophetic.
