Excerpt from Confederate Veteran, Vol. 33: January, 1925Returning from a recent trip to Virginia, I saw Greensboro, N. C., for the first time. I was not there when the surrender came. Wounded at Nashville, I was given a furlough and was returning about April 15, but stopped in Montgomery with probably five hundred others who, like myself, were going to the army in North Carolina. Wilson had swept by Selma and was approaching Montgomery. In a day or two we were hustled on trains and rushed to Girard. Shortly after Wilson swept into Columbus, Ga., and on to Macon, which he reached on April 21. We scattered into the woods about Columbus until we got word of the surrender at Greens boro.Some of the most desperate fighting of the war occurred in North Carolina. There were no great battles, but nowhere did the Confederates fight more gallantly against terrific Odds.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
