(CONFEDERATE OFFICER REPORTS FOR DUTY AT ANDERSONVILLE)
Pair of war-date documents relating to Col. W. H. Jenifer for duty at Andersonville. First is a "Copy" A. L. S. from Maj. Gen. Dabney H. Maury 1p. oblong 8vo., Mobile, Sept. 13, 1864, reading, in part: "…Col. W. H. Jenifer…is relieved from further duty…[and] will proceed to Andersonville, Ga. and report for duty to Brig. Gen. Winder…". Removed from another document with Jenifer's four-line inscription that it is a true copy. Second, a partly-printed D. S. on "The Confederate States" official form 1p. 4to., Augusta, Ga., Oct. 8, 1864, concerning Jenifer's travel expenses from Mobile to Andersonville. Minor paper loss at fold, else overall very good. Surely worthy of much further research!
