^#1716 ^Lot 1776 Stephen J. Lee

War-dated manuscript report in an unknown hand, being a transcript of a letter from Lee sent on July 3, 1863, providing information on the Battle of Winchester, on four 8 x 10.5 line sheets. In part: “You have probably had all the particulars of the battle at Winchester, Va.,…in which the 18th regiments figured conspicuously. We opened and closed the battle losing very few killed and wounded. About 500 prisoners were taken.” Partial separations along central horizontal and vertical folds, uniform toning, and paper loss to top right of last page affecting several words of text, otherwise very good condition.
