A good war-date Union soldier's letter, 2pp. 4to., written by Pvt. Silas B. Warren, Co. F, 17th Ill. Vols., LaGrange, [Tenn.], Nov. 23, 1862, in part: "…my oldest brother (Henry) [1st Lt. Henry Warren, Co. H, 7th Maine KIA Spotsylvania C. H., Va., 5/18/64] was taken prisoner at the Battle of Antietam…is now in Washington D. C. on patrol waiting to be exchanged…there is considerable talk about the change of officers that has been made in the east and nearly all are in favor of it for they think Burnside will drive things through faster than McClellan did…Surgeon Kellogg who has been acting Brigade Surgeon since Col. Ross was promoted to Brigadier General has returned to the Regt…Silas B. Warren, Co. F, 17 Regt." VG.
