Description
Transcription of letter of condolence addressed to Annie Welsh, "My Dear Sister in Christ," from J. H. Menges, York, Pennsylvania. Letter provides comfort and support in the unexpected death of Geneal Welsh and requests permission to attend the funeral of "my dear friend."
Admin/Biographical History
Thomas Welsh (1824-1863) was a Lancaster County native (born and raised in Columbia), who rose from hardscrabble origins to local fame, first as a Mexican War hero, and then as a brigadier general during the Civil War. He was well known and well respected as a no nonsense officer, for his leadership and gallantry in battle, for his dedication to the service of his country, and for his concern for the welfare of his men. See MG0828 for more biographical information.
Original letter is item # W-127-2012 in the Thomas Welsh Collection, in the display case with Welsh’s Hardee Hat and epaulets. Still in donor's possession.
