Open All Close All

http://schema.org/description

  • "Writing to John Page shortly before the Battle of Great Bridge, William Woodford describes the troop movements, provisioning efforts and skirmishes of the 2nd Virginia Regiment leading up to the military engagement. Woodford complains about the conduct of Colonel Thomas Bullitt, who he describes as "an old Soldier, that I have allways thought not a little, Insane." The letter also contains a brief account of an interaction between one of Woodford's scouting parties and a group of African American soldiers, one of whom was killed during the encounter."
