Mr.. EDITOR Permit me to use your columns
for the purpose of expressing the grateful thanks
OF the Augusta Lee Rifles, Co. d. to Mr.. JAS.
RAMSEY, OF West View, Augusta county, Va,
and several kind ladies Of that neighborhood, for
the seasonable present of a large box, contain
Ing provisions; enough to supply the Company
for two days. Circumstances rendered this
thoughtful kindness doubly welcome. The three
days rations had in most cases been completely
spoiled by the long march through the mud and
rain of yesterday, and in place of Confederate
beef, such luxuries as chicken, ham, loaf bread
pies, cakes, &C., now fill our haversacks. / as
sure the generous donors that Go. d. appre
ciates, and will not soon forget this treat
