sold Sherman’s Artillery Chief Says Their Georgia Campaign was Brilliant

Sherman's Men Are Aware They've "struck a most damaging blow to the Rebellion".

William Barry. Artillery chief for McClellan and Sherman, for the latter serving through the Atlanta campaign and March to the Sea. Autograph Letter Signed on his Artillery Headquarters, Military Division of the Mississippi letterhead, Goldsboro, North Carolina, March 24, 1865.

“Your favor of the 30th was not received by me until yesterday on my arrival with the army at this place. General Sherman has just completed another of his brilliant campaigns, and with his army has struck a most damaging blow to the rebellion. We are now in a favorable position to follow-up this success. Responding heartily to your hopes and wishes touching the termination of this war and thanking you kindly for your expressions of personal goodwill, William F. Barry, Brevet Major General, Chief of Artillery.” A very important statement of how Sherman’s officers (and most likely Sherman himself) saw their march through Georgia and the Carolinas. A trimmed CDV is tipped on the page.
