Here, our Civil War hero exposes an outrage in his camp -- it seems that $450 - 500 dollars that were to provide the troops with potatoes, onions, butter and cheese have disappeared from the Quarter Master's office. Hulburd admits: "We have some officers whose honesty I doubt."
Estimated Value $100 - 150.
