[CIVIL WAR SURGEON LETTER] WILLIAM HARRISON GITHENS (1827-1904) Surgeon in the Union army during the American Civil War. At the outset of the war, Githens enlisted as an Orderly Sergeant in the 16th Illinois Infantry. During this enlistment, he was stationed in Missouri, Tennessee and Pennsylvania and saw very little action. Following his re-enlistment in 1863, Githens was promoted to Assistant Surgeon and served with the 78th Regiment, Illinois Volunteers. As a member of the 14th Army Corp . during this second enlistment, he was very active, serving as an assistant surgeon in the Tullahoma operation, Chickamauga, Chattanooga, the Atlanta Campaign, the March to the Sea and the Carolinas’ Campaign. Following the war, Githens returned home to Hamilton, Illinois, where he owned a number of pharmacies. ALS. Two pages, 7 3/4” x 9 3/4”. Post Hospital. Nashville, Tennessee. January 13,1 865. William Githens writes to his wife, in part: “ … I can’t learn anything yet from the detachments - where they are or whether I can get to them - I think I will however, very soon as Genl Steedman has got back to Chattanooga and the Detachments will probably be sent to their respective commands at Savannah … Since Alfred Gordon was transferred to the Veteran Reserves I got no news of any kind … I hope you are all well. I suppose Willie walks every where by this time - I wish I was there to see… ” Usual Folds. Edge splits to folds. Pin holes at intersection of folds. Overall Fine.
