[from the diary of Lt. John Tyler, of Letcher’s Artillery]

(Sept. 9th)  Sent
letters that I wrote yesterday to the Episcopal
minister Leesburg to be sent on by first oppor-
-tunity to R – , this was done through kindness
of Miss Lizzie Dulaney whose friend Mr. Williams is.
Miss Lizzie road over to Mr Millers this evening to stay
all night.  Have had a talk with Mrs. Peyton a-
-bout mutual friends.
