Jackson at the time that he was wounded at the Wilderness. I am very much obliged to you for sending me so interesting a relic of one whose memory is so dear to me. Before making any disposition of it I think it proper to consult Mrs. Jackson, whose wishes on the subject are entitled to consideration. Mrs. Lee joins me in kindest regards to yourself and family, and I am very respectfully, Your obedient servant,
