W. W. Duffield Letter, 1866 May 7
Scope and Contents
This collection consists of one letter from Duffield to Major Lewis M. Maney, CSA., relative to a grape vine sent by Duffield to Maney in 1862, and to Maney's impending visit to Woodside. It also refers to Maney as one "who sheltered me when a stranger, and who healed and comforted me when wounded and a prisoner," evidently a reference to the two men's encounter during the Civil War. That, however, is the lone reference to the conflict.
