Abstract
Description
Autograph letter signed. From Licking Run, Virginia. Reynolds writes, "There is very little news with us that I am allowed to relate. I may say however that there has already been some very hard fighting and the losses on both sides is very heavy ... Our forces thus far have been very successful and one of these fine mornings you may expect to hear that Richmond is ours! We reached this point in time to see General Burnsides' forces pass they numbered about forty thousand and near ten thousand of them were negroes, they presented a rather fine appearance."
