- Date:
- 1862-12-13/1863-03-05
- Description:
- A color scan of a scrapbook page with various documents and two annotations. The first document is a sutler's bill for Everson's miscellaneous purchases while at a military camp. Everson's accompanying annotation explains the bill and an order from Washington, D.C. regarding officers' credit at commissaries. There is a receipt for debts paid to the commissary which Everson uses to disprove wide-held beliefs regarding officers and rations as he writes about in the accompanying annotation. There is a shopping list included that Everson wrote from his regiment, despite not being able to walk after injury, after returning early. Many other officers were also wounded, hence his premature return, and he was able to perform small tasks though shopping not being one of them.
