idea of suffocating us, and are only fighting now to redeem their lost reputation. They will soon get tired of this, for we are bound to whip them whenever they fight, our men are all heroes, and theirs are only hired soldiers working for pay. The
south will be the most prosperous nation on earth, after she achieves her Independence, and that is near at hand. The planters hare everything to hope in the future, as their property will be placed on firm foundation under our new
Government…I send mail today - some newspapers with the latest war news…", Very Fine.

DESIGN---From time to time pieces will turn up which show a jagged, colorless line across the design….Some students have erroneously attributed this mark to a "Cracked Stone."…This scar is the result of some sharp
substance…possibly grit…locating on the sponge used in dampening the stone, and scratching the design when the sponge passed over.".
