http://www2.lib.unc.edu/mss/inv/b/Brown,John_L.html

John L. Brown (b. 1829) was a Charlotte, N.C., merchant and state legislator. The collection contains Civil War papers, including letters from John M. Tate and W. E. Stitt, two of Brown's friends in the Confederate Army in Virginia and eastern North Carolina. Tate was with the 11th North Carolina Regiment. Their letters discuss finances, supplies, news of friends, camp life, and battles. Also included are correspondence with the North Carolina Subsistence Department and other items concerning supplying provisions to the state; and some political correspondence, chiefly about the establishment of a pro-Confederate newspaper to oppose Governor W. W. Holden.
