October 1861 | | | | Published: | 2000 | | | | Subjects: | The Corinne Carr Nettleton Civil War Collection | UVA-LIB-Text | UVA-LIB-Nettletoncivilwarletters | | | | Description: | I have heard gentlemen make the remark that when ladies began to write with a lead
pencil to them, they guessed she wished to discontinue their correspondence But when you receive this, written with
a pencil and on such paper I imagine that you will think worse than that, but do
not harbor the thought for one instan dear Charlie that my feelings are such for indeed they are not I have no other paper, and my pens have all “got
poor” therefore you will excuse this will you not? for I thought it
necessary to write immediately as
Capt. Aspen is in Warren and I do not know as I will get a chance to send again, nor do I know
when he returns to war. Where are you to day
are you engaged in some bloody battle or are you reposing in
security in your tent or on some bed of sickness.
How often my thoughts
thoughts been with you to day There seems to be a presentiment of evil hovering round me, and my thoughts are with Hal
and yourself, Can it be that you are in danger and some rebel
strike—God forbid. I must dispel
such thoughts. But would that I were near you. then I could feel
that let come what might I would know all. I have a sad and gloomy spirit
to day not much like the gay and joyous Addie that Hal used to tell about but lasteveI was to a sewing bee for the soldiers. and I caused a strange feeling to thrill
through me which is hard to dispel | | | Similar Items: | Find |

letters last saturday and I can assure you that it afforded much
pleasure. Charlie if you could witness the eagerness with
which I grasp your letters you would not hesitate to leave your work
to write to me. But of course I would not ask you to if you could not
do so with convenience. I think you must have
received another letter from me since you wrote
about the 12th of this month. This is a beautiful day rather
cool but not more so than we should expect for the season. Mr.
James Beebe of
Ohio Seventh is here. I do not feel so much like entertaining him as I do
Tenney of said Regt and therefore
act accordingly. He is trying to guess who I am writing to | | | Similar Items: | Find |

Tenney, 26 January 1862 | | | | Published: | 2000 | | | | Subjects: | The Corinne Carr Nettleton Civil War Collection | UVA-LIB-Text | UVA-LIB-Nettletoncivilwarletters | | | | Description: | Addie apologizes for not responding sooner to Charlie's previous two letters. She
has read in the newspaper that Gen. McClellan is not granting furloughs and
Addie is disappointed in not being able to see him. Charlie had sent her poetry,
presumatively love poetry. Addie writes that she always wishes that she could be
a poetess and that she sees poetry everwhere in life and nature. Finally, Addie
comes to the main point of her letter. She claims that she sees Charlie only as
a brother, not a lover. She is conflicted over her feelings, hurting Charlie,
and the impact on family and friends. Laurie (Addie's brother) has been playing
a song, "Heart be still" in the background, and it has Addie's emotions riled
up. Addie hopes that Charlie does not take her letter badly for she does not
wish to hurt him. She points out that loving him as a brother places him in the
highest esteem, and that it is not an empty and cold declaration. Laurie
finishes his music and wishes Addie to go with him to a prayer meeting, so Addie
closes the letter praying that a guardian angel watch over Charlie. | | | Similar Items: | Find |

Tenney, 1862 February 2 | | | | Published: | 2000 | | | | Subjects: | The Corinne Carr Nettleton Civil War Collection | UVA-LIB-Text | UVA-LIB-Nettletoncivilwarletters | | | | Description: | Did you ever behold such a beautiful sabbath day as this one? I feel
more like working out of doors and shouting for joy, than sitting in
silent admiration, as civilized people are pleased to call it. But I
don't believe they enjoy the beauty one half as much as they would if
they were as free as birds. Oh, anything for me but sitting in the house
so prim and formal saying just such words, as if they had
memorized them, and if you chance to say anything
else, blush as if you had been
caught in the act of stealing Why, Charlie my
darling I believe human beings wander as far from nature as from God.
But you, will say is this from Addie, such a commence- ment for a letter from Addie? I presume that is the fact, does it not
agree with your sentiments? Charlie, You do not know the disappointment I shall
experience if you do not come home when HalliecomesI had stored away so much pleasure for your return, thus it is with life. How
suddenly and cruelly can our brightest hopes be dashed. But I truly
hope thus that hope will rise soon. I saw Mrs.
Benton at a donations party last tuesday evening, and judge of
my surprise when she told me that, her husband recieved a letter from Charlie Tenney.
She told me that she heard from Hal, I asked her, how she heard | | | Similar Items: | Find |

Tenney, 1862 February 4 | | | | Published: | 2000 | | | | Subjects: | The Corinne Carr Nettleton Civil War Collection | UVA-LIB-Text | UVA-LIB-Nettletoncivilwarletters | | | | Description: | Do you know how sweet those three word sound to me? and also how dear? No
wonder I love to linger on these words but I must turn to other
subjects. I must give you an account of my "days works." I have been engaged, (I
think) in a good work to day.. not as noble a work as you are engaged in, but it is the best that I could do. I have
been to the "Soldiers Aid Society" working real hard Do I
hear your approval? Oh: how I wish you could have been there.. It
is really amusing to see old and young gathered in the "Union Hall" for the
benefit of the soldiers. Here in one corner of the "Hall" sits a group of "Mecca
Belles" busily sewing bandages or some garment or
perhaps "scraping lint." I hope you will never
see that, and in another place sits the "young married people" engaged in the same
way, while the olderlaidies are standing over the table and stove
cooking chickens to send to the hospitals, What a dreadful night last night was for
the four "chickees" A perfect massacre Bye the way
Charlie do you not think it a wise idea, that of canning chickens for the sick
soldiers, now when some supplies arrive from
Cleveland for the hospital just "play sick" a little while long
enough to get some "Mecca goodies" But Charlie will not do so will he? dont mind
me this time, Dear Charlie, do you wonder at my little simple letters. Laurie has just been here and she would readit I know just by the smile she had on her face that she thought
there was simplicity enough about this, and perhaps a slight attack of silliness. May
be so but I have tried to make my letters
as cheerful as possible so that you would not get
homesick. Let Laurie look if she wantstoo, do you care? | | | Similar Items: | Find |
