[312]

In conclusion, let me urge upon you to remain quiet and keep your armor burnished. You, who struck the first blow in Baltimore and the last in Virginia, have done all that could be asked of you. Had the rest of our officers and men adhered to our cause with the same devotion to-day we would have been free from the Yankees.

May the God of battles bless you. With many thanks for your generous support and a hearty God bless you. I bid you farewell.

Thomas T. Munford, Brig.—General, Commanding Division. Cloverdale, Botetourt county, Va., April 29, 1865.
