July z, 1868.
Miss M. A., My dearest ono: Re-
ceived your letter last night and was
so glad to hear from you. We have
had hard time since | wrote at
Carlisle, Pa. We left there the morn
ing of July /, early, and moved I'M
der quick time, going south; and the
further we went, the hotter the sun
got. About 9 o'clock we could hear
distant cannonading, and oftener did
the order pass along the line to close
up. We could begin to hear the small
arms, and we were hurried on as
fast as we could walk. 1t was very
hot and some began to fall out, over
come by the heat. When we arrived
on the field our men were being
pressed back, and we were hurried up
to help them. which we did in fine
style; by night we had the Yanks
routed past Gettysburg. One Of our
the Third Alabama, went
through the town.
viii give you the regiments of our
brigade. 1t is composed of the Bird,
9Th, 9Th, 18th and goth Alabama reg
The Covington leader. (Covington, Tenn.) 18??-current, 1917-12-27

iments, but let me tell YOU, chat eve
ming was not all the fighting our
brigade did. On the next day my old
est brother Lieut.. John Fowler, was
killed and my other brother captured,
and / am all undone.
We are near Williamsport in line
of battle, waiting for the river to
fall, and looking every day for the
Yanks to advance on US, but we feel
like we are able to meet them.
My dear, it is so hard to give up
my brothers, but so it is. Do please
write often, as ! do love to hear
from you, and if ever do &C. home
! can tell you much more than | can
write. Love and SORROW is my lot at
present and if it wotc uot FOR you
it would be much worse, but the hope
| have. Of seeing you braces me up.
So farewell, my dear.
AS ever, your sincere lover,
S. w. FOWLER.
