Sobre este artículo
Hamburg, Alabama, 1862. Single leaf, in ink manuscript on recto, docketed on verso. Old folds, Near Fine.
Having reviewed Governor Shorter's "proclamation calling on all exempts to form into Companies," Pack says he has "been thinking of getting up a company for Home protection, for our Country will be when the conscripts leave, very scarce of men & I think for the keeping down of Insurrectionary Movements these organizations will do much. I will ask
you also if a company of horsemen would not be preferable." Pack, a Hamburg farmer, owned 45 slaves, according to the 1860 census, and was one of the largest slaveholders in that county.
