Title |
Bernard note to Doctor Claiborn |
Dates of Creation |
September 21, 1895 |
Scope & Content |
A rough draft of a note, written by Bernard, to Dr. Claiborn, who had sent Bernard a copy of his reminiscences as a contribution to Volume II of War Talks of Confederate Veterans. Bernard stated that he had made some slight changes and additions, and that what the Doctor had sent was a fitting addition to General Hagood's submission. Bernard wanted Dr. Claiborn to review the notations he had made, and to return the same. On the reverse is a notation made by Bernard. Apparently, the Doctor's handwritten submission was typed by Bernard. Bernard stated there were a few words he could not make out. Bernard informed Dr. Claiborn that page fifteen of the original document had now become page three. Five pages of handwritten material converted to one page of typed material. At the very end is a notation: Dr. Claiborn, Account of Battles, June 16th, 1864. The paper on which Bernard wrote has deteriorated, leaving holes. Some of the words in the note are hard to make out. |
