Union officer (1837–1872). Lee served in the 18th Connecticut Infantry and utilized his skills as a printer while stationed at Harper’s Ferry, working a printing press. He was captured at Winchester, Virginia in June of 1862, and detained at Libby Prison in Richmond. After his release, he was reassigned to oversee the Army Printing Corps at Cumberland and Harper’s Ferry. Five items: Partly-printed DS signed “Lewis Deitz,” one page, 8.5 x 11. Notice of discharge for Stephen J. Lee of Company B, 18th Regiment of Connecticut volunteers, after his three years of service. Lee was discharged on June 27, 1865 at Harpers Ferry, Virginia, with “No objection to his being re-enlisted,” bearing several endorsements; two original carte-de-visite photos, 2.5 x 4, one featuring a bust portrait of Lee, and the other a full-length image, photographed by Ewing & Co.; a cloth patch bearing the ink print, “Stephen J. Lee, Co. B. 18th C. V.,” 4 x 2.5; and a newspaper clipping, 2.5 x 4.75, bearing Lee’s obituary.
