Letters from William James at Battle of Little Bighorn

Post by Ray Newman »

"Letters from the only Welshman to fight at the US Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876 have been rediscovered. Sgt William Batine James, from Pembrokeshire, was a member of the 7th Cavalry which was slaughtered in the bloody battle in Montana. Fishguard reporter Mike Lewis found the correspondence Sgt James wrote to his brother."

The most important aspect of this signature line is that you don't realize it doesn't say anything significant until you are just about done reading it & then it is too late to stop reading it....

Interesting and thanks.

I downloaded Custer's Journals from when he was taking the train west the first time. Computer crash are them. May try again to find them (download was free since documents are public domain).
