Letters, 1897, n.d.
Scope and Content
The Elliott Johnston Correspondence includes three letters from Sergeant Elliott Johnston to Col. John S. Mosby. Only one is clearly dated (1897), but the others are most likely from around the same time and exchange of letters. Although written more than 30 years later, the correspondence seems to be a request by Mosby for information on Johnston's activities during the Civil War, apparently while he was in the service of General Richard S. Ewell.
