Résumé du livre

Butler writes regarding a furlough for Private John Kick, who married John Tyler's niece : "I think Kick deserves a great deal of credit in making a Union woman of her, and I would recommend that a furlough of thirty days be granted hm, to set up his housekeeping in and aid in setting up a supply of soldiers for the next war."
