LETCHER, JOHN
(1813 - 1884) Confederate Governor of Virginia who was succeeded by ""Extra Billy"" Smith and imprisoned for several months following the South's surrender. Interesting A.L.S. ""John Letcher"", 1p. 8vo., Lexington, Va., June 17, 1878 with commentary on Letcher's political beliefs and recommending a Mr. James Sener as a fine lawyer and person, in part: ""àIn politics we differ. He an administration man, while I am a strict States Rights Democratà"". Very good.
