Opis: War Talks of Confederate Veterans (Classic Reprint) - Bernard George S.

Excerpt from War Talks of Confederate Veterans

This Book, embracing a series of addresses delivered before A. P.Hill Camp of Confederate Veterans, of Petersburg, Va., has the approval of that organization of ex-Confederate soldiers in the following resolution of the camp adopted at its meeting on the evening of May 5th, 1892:

Whereas, The camp has been informed that Comrade Geo. S. Bernard proposes to publish in book form the several addresses which have been delivered before the camp and furnished him in writing, with such notes and other addenda as he may deem necessary and proper, the book to be entitled "War Talks op Confederate Veterans," and has offered to share equally with the camp all profits that may come to him from the proposed publication, provided the camp will apply the money to the purchase and collection of books and other literature relating to the late war, for the use of the camp; therefore,

Resolved, 1st, That the camp, having confidence in Comrade Bernard's fitness to edit the proposed volume, cordially approves his plan to do so.

Resolved, 2nd, That the camp, thanking Comrade Bernard for his offer to share equally with it his profits to accrue from the publication of the book, upon the condition that the camp will apply the money as indicated in the foregoing preamble, accepts said offer and will apply whatever it may receive to the purpose aforesaid.

The whole matter of this book - the casualties in Pegram's battery, Mahone's and Wise's Virginia, Clingman's and Ransoms North Carolina, and Saunders Alabama brigades, at the battle of the Crater, which are reproduced from the Petersburg (Va.) Express of August 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th, 1864, a few foot-notes, and some few words in the text excepted - was published in weekly instalments in the Rural Messenger, a weekly paper published in Petersburg, Va., the first instalment appearing in its issue of May 28th, 1892, and the last instalment in its issue of November 5th, 1892.
