Description
Old Aaron, Colonel John S. Mosby’s body servant, during the war, is living in Brooklyn with his daughter, at the ripe age of 85. Memory is failing. The only members of the famous guerrilla command he can recollect are Colonel Mosby and Lieutenant Fountain Beattie, of Company E. Mosby, Victor Smith says, though a poor man, sends a comfortable check to Aaron once a month, and the aged darky makes the sign of the X – his mark.Date(s) of Creation
