Headq'rs Hampton's Lyeson, March 1, 1862. To John Herist, Esq., Metansas, Cuba: My Dear Sir:
--Some months ago, I re-received through your hands the very beautiful flag which the ladies of Metansas did us the honor to present to the Legion, and I have since then been most anxiously seeking an opportunity to t been altogether unknown; whilst, at the same time, it nerves our hearts to strive to prove worthy of the approval of those fair women who know so well how to reward brave men. In behalf of the Legion, I beg to make, through you, our profound and grateful acknowledgments for the honor done us, and I assure the ladies of Metansas, who have entrusted to us so precious a gift, that we shall cherish it for their sakes, and, if need be, defend it with our lives. Wade Hampton, Colonel Legion.
