Enclosed is a little flag - captured at Virona Miss. It bears evidence of having seen service though its exact history is not known. I beg you to accept it as a present - in your individual and not official character - that you may continue in possession of it - as long as you hate rebels and copperheads.

truly your Obdt Servt
