  • Ezra Barnhouse Goods at Vicksburg

    Gents,
    John and Beth Crabb will be set up on Friday morning for the purpose of exchanging modern money for sutler chits. This is their usual routine. Makes all of you boys registered as CS really sorry I bet! Only chits can be used throughout the weekend.

    "...And to Missouri we
    Extend both heart and hand
    And welcome her a sister
    Of our Confederate band
    Tho surrounded by oppression
    No one dare deter
    Her adding to our Bonnie Blue Flag
    Her bright and twelfth star! "

    Lyrics, Bonnie Blue Flag, by Harry McCarthy, 1861.

        My favorite line from Perryville 05 was hearing John say "Eat all this so we don't have to take it home" to Evan Zimmerman (of Mess #1 fame) and then the utter destruction that took place on the pickled egg jar. As much as me and the ole Pit (Zimmerman) tried we just couldn't make a dent. The ride back, however, was interesting.

          I bet Pat. Evan is an eating machine.

          Ezra's meatpie's are TITS when you are starving!
