31 July 1864 letter from T.R. McBeath, 27th KY Vol. Infantry, to Eliza Magowan of Mt. Sterling, KY. McBeath notes Mt Sterling witnessed another fight, but his concern for KY in general is obvious. "Kentucky is seeing a hard time now. It saddens, and maddens me to think of the injuries done, and insults daily offered to Kentucky."
