Letters from John Cuddy (Oct. – Nov. 1863)

John Taylor Cuddy writes four letters to his friends and family describing his experience as a soldier of the Union Army during the Civil War. Cuddy describes the places he has traveled through, expresses his wish for a furlough to return home, and comments on the latest war news. General Ulysses S. "Grant has whipped [Confederate General] Bragg and Charleston will fall before long and I think that will end the [war]," as Cuddy notes. Transcripts included.
