I Do Not Set Myself Up As

A True Woman Always Loves A Real Soldier.

Politically I Did Not Like Mr. Lincoln For In Him I Saw The Destroyer.

Fortune Has Played Me A Sad Trick By Letting Me Live On And On.

I Do Not Set Myself Up As An Advocate Of The Woman's Right Doctrine, But Would Rather Appear In The Character Of A Quiet Lady Expressing Her Sentiments, Not So Much To The Public As To Her Immediate Friends.

Meanwhile, My Residence Within The Federal Lines, And My Acquaintance With So Many Of The Officers, The Origin Of Which I Have Already Mentioned, Enabled Me To Gain Much Important Information As To The Position And Designs Of The Enemy.
