Memoir, c.1890s

Written sometime around 1900, the document recounts the military career of Archibald Atkinson, Jr. as a doctor in the Confederate Army. The memoir was writen in a commercially prepared notebook (printed, lined paper) on a total of 58 pages. The transcription preserves the page and line breaks as they appear in the original. Links throughout the transcript point to additional information on relevent people and places.

The memoir seems to begin in the middle of the text; there is no introductory material or conclusion. There may well have been another notebook with the first part of the narrative; if so, there is no indication anywhere on the notebook preserved at Virginia Tech of its existence.
