AB Briscoe's February 25, 1862 letter to his mother

Andrew Birdsall Briscoe's TTR letters at the San Jacinto Monument.

From Murfreesboro on February 25, 1862.

There were reports that 2 Rangers killed a Federal officer in Nashville on February 24 but were captured. He doubted it to be true. Some great lines about his coolness under fire when the Yankees attacked Bowling Green--but he confesses he didn't realize that he was under fire.
