The Daily Dispatch: November 8, 1864., [Electronic resource], From Petersburg. (search)
et, if rumors be true, it is little more than so much waste paper. The fact is, whiskey is now our greatest foe. Men and officers — and, I dare say, more of the latter than the former — by some means manage to pay five dollars a drink for the article as readily as it commanded five cents in peace times. And this, too, when the land is filled with widows and orphans crying for bread. Is it not a burning shame? Can we expect success if we are a nation of whiskey-drinkers? In the campaign now closing, the brigade of General Weisiger (Mahone's old brigade) has captured twenty-five battle-flags. Of these the Sixty-first Virginia, Lieutenant-Colonel Stewart, captured eight; the Sixteenth, Lieutenant-Colonel White-head, seven; the Forty-first, Lieutenant-Colonel Minetree, five; the Twelfth, Major Lewellen, three; the Sixth, Colonel Rogers, two. Truly, this is a proud record. Besides this, they have participated in not less than ten pitched battles, always achieving success.
