Confederacy, "Immortal 600" Author J. Ogden Murray in Two Letters. Totalling 10 pages, written in 1901, Murray is gathering facts for his famous book that he would publish 4 years later. He describes in graphic detail the horrors that he and the Immortal 600 encountered as prisoners of war, F.-V.F. with transcription. Estimate  $1,500 - 2,000. He writes "….it certainly was the most wanton cruelty ever inflected upon human beings. Really when we tell the story people look at us and doubt our statement, what was more cruel than their medical treatment, no matter what was our complaint that no-headed cow doctor on Morris Island gave us an opium pill or a dose of Tamari Ginger. Their treatment was murder and every man who died on that trip was murdered by cruelty of Stanton and Genl. Foster, who are both dead and I believe are both in hell, where the whole Yankee outfit would go if I could send them….Our children should have a correct history of our treatment and those scaly-wags who took the oath should be held up to the scorn of every true man. It is a great pity you could not have taken Hilton Head and killed the last one of those devilish deserters. I hate a deserter more than I do a snake". $0 (Image)
