Title
Letter from Fuller to Wife, Clark County, Virginia, February 20, 1863
Description
Now in camp, Fuller has more work to do than "four hands could have done."
On the 13th, Fuller and his regiment left Culpeper, Virginia to the Cedar Run battlefield so soldiers could see the remains of their friends.
(Fuller's description of the decomposition of the fallen soldiers lines up with the amount of time since the Battle of Cedar Mountain on August 9, 1862)
He then marched from Cedar Run to Snickers Ford and camped at the top of Blue Ridge.
