Hiram Teed papers, 1863-1865.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/55648535

Civil War letters, chiefly written from coastal South Carolina and addressed to Teed's wife, Libby, at Trout Creek (Delaware County, N.Y.). Letters written from coastal South Carolina originated from Morris Island and Folly Island (near Charleston), and Hilton Head and Port Royal (near Beaufort), and elsewhere in the field while Teed accompanied the regiment on military expeditions. Papers of interest include: letter, 26 Apr. 1863, written from Suffolk, Virginia, re the difficulties of separation from his wife; 24 Oct. 1863, discussing the bombardment of Charleston, S.C., Northern politics, and the Copperhead movement in the North [i.e. term for pacifists who opposed the war, resisted the draft, etc.]; 25 Apr. 1865, stating that Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston had not yet surrendered and claiming that retreating Confederates were "killing the poor darkies"; and 17 June 1865, reporting that his regiment expected to leave Hilton Head the following day.
