Description
On November 15,1864 General SHerman cut out of the back of Atlanta with 68,000 hard worn yankees. He drove them down through Georgia to the sea. With hate in their hearts they moved in a line, cutting a scar 50 miles wide through God's blessed country, looting and gutting our land like vultures. They tore up the railroad tracks, they burned the cotton and the gins. Lord they made everybody suffer.
At least this family has been lucky enough to be left a roof over their heads, even though most of the horses and food have been "requisitioned"
