Description

Letter, Alex W. Feemster in Selma, Alabama, to his wife, Loulie Feemster, quoting scripture to encourage her to stay cheerful. He writes about church matters, tells her that he went to a funeral for William Lunceford's wife, and expresses sympathy for any man who loses his wife. He emphasizes that he has made every effort to try to arrange for her to join him in Selma, apparently reacting to her suggesting that he didn't really want her there. 1864.
