http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122582861

Letter to the Governor of Virginia, James Barbour offering his services as an officer in the Virginia militia. Faulkner states "there is an expectation that the enemy will make an attack on Norfolk this season. I will, if your excellency and the honorable Council of State, thinks proper, resume my former command, under the impression that my knowledge of the country and the little experience I gained in tactics would enable me to act with more effect against the enemy, than a person who never was in service." Written at Martinsburg, Va.
