Abstract

In this letter to his sister, Evans writes he and some of his colleagues built a new cabin for themselves and that other troops built a new church. He also writes about the weather, which has been below freezing, his feeling that the war will end soon, and the Union capture of Fort Fisher.

A typed transcript follows the original handwritten letter in this digital file.
