During the \n Battle of New Market , where his brother\n William was fatally wounded, he was a cadet private in Company\n C and was detailed to serve in the artillery section of the \n V.M.I. Corps . He continued in service\n with the corps until the evacuation of \n Richmond in April 1865. On January 22,\n 1865, a few days after being appointed a sergeant in Company\n B, Charles wrote his father, asking his advice as to whether\n or not he should resign \n V.M.I. to join the army, and, if so, what\n branch he should enter.","James Graham Tate entered \n Emory and Henry College in 1859 and\n remained until the spring of 186l. His letters during this\n time were mostly concerned with school, family and friends in \n Wythe County , and wanting news of the\n \"ladies.\" On January 10, 1861, he wrote his brother John\n mentioning that he wanted to finish school but that he\n anticipated being called upon to fight soon. On May ll, 1861,\n he enlisted in the \n Wythe Grays which later became \n Company A of the 4th Regiment of\n Virginia , organized April 28, 1861; the regiment\n was accepted into Confederate service on July 1, 1861. In June\n 1861 he wrote from \n Harper's Ferry, Virginia about elections\n in his company and adapting to life in the barracks; and\n later, from \n Camp Stevens, Berkeley County , he\n described the burning of the Potomac Bridge and public\n buildings which had been ordered by \n Joseph E. Johnston as the Confederates\n evacuated \n Harper's Ferry . The 4th Regiment became a\n part of the \n Virginia First Brigade , which had\n established itself as the \n \"Stonewall Brigade\" at the First \n Bull Run Campaign, July 1, 1861. During\n August and September of that year, he discusses the loss of\n his knapsack and blankets after a skirmish, requested that his\n father send \n \"Burkhart\" to help in the mess and take\n care of luggage, and mentioned the court martial of a\n deserter, \n Francis Tomney . And, as their marching\n continued, he wondered about their purpose. An interesting\n letter of April 3, 1862, pertains to their orders to take\n their pieces of artillery to \n Staunton, Virginia and having to use\n muskets again, the men wanting transfers to artillery and\n cavalry companies, and losing some 76 men in their regiment\n while fighting on March 23 (probably at the \n First Battle of Kernstown, Virginia ). It\n was not until April 30 that \n \"Stonewall\" Jackson left \n Elk Run heading for \n Staunton , which became a major part of\n the \n Shenandoah Valley Campaign. During 1863,\n the Confederate armies seemed to be faced with severe\n hardships, including a shortage of rations, the reduction of\n transportation, and the scarcity of \"white labor.\" In the\n spring of 1863, James revealed his disappointment in southern\n farmers for avoiding their duty by not growing grain to feed\n the men in the Confederate armies. In a March 1863 letter,\n Tate mentions \n \"Jeb\" Stuart 's fight with the enemy,\n calling it a \"right brilliant little affair,\" probably in\n reference to the Battle of \n Kelly's Ford in late December when the\n Federal Army pulled back from the site after a day's fighting.\n The following month, April 1863, he writes of marching toward \n Port Royal to meet the enemy who was\n crossing \n [the Rappahannock] , only to find that\n they had recrossed. At this time there had been a three-day\n Federal expedition operating from \n Bell Plain to Port Royal. In late October\n 1863, Tate describes the engagement at \n Bristoe Station on the 14th which brought\n criticism to General \n Ambrose P. Hill who had \"ordered only two\n brigades\" to make the charge on General \n George Gordon Meade 's \n Army of the Potomac . The following year, \n James Graham Tate was killed at \n Shepherdstown, Virginia on August 25.","William Hanson Tate became a cadet at the \n Virginia Military Institute on July 30,\n 1857, and was a member of the \n Cadet Corps . While at \n V.M.I. , he wrote of living arrangements,\n social activities, new cadet initiation, and news of family\n and friends. In his September 4, 1857, letter, he gave a\n lengthy description of living in \"encampment,\" mentioning the\n barracks and guard duty. As early as October 1857, he was\n looking forward to the cadets' trip to \n Richmond in February 1858; and, on March\n 8, 1858, he wrote an interesting and lengthy account of the\n trip to \n Richmond during which the cadets\n represented the \n Virginia Military Institute at the\n dedication of the Crawford equestrian statue of \n George Washington in the city's Capitol\n Square on February 22, 1858. In the fall of 1859 he became a\n teacher at the \n Anchor and Hope Academy as all \n V.M.I. men were expected to serve some\n time as teachers. Between October 1859 and June 1860, his\n letters contained news of the school; and, on February 14,\n 1860, he mentioned a trip to Richmond being planned by \"Uncle\n David\" [Squire \n David Graham ] and his father. During this\n time he was on the muster roll of the \n Wythe Grays , although his real military\n service was in the \n 51st Regiment of the Virginia Volunteers .\n He was elected First Lieutenant upon its organization in May\n 1861. On November 20, 1861, he described their retreat from \n Cotton Hill which resulted in considerable\n loss of property, General \n John Buchanan Floyd 's delay and retreat\n tactics, and illness among the men. In May and June 1862, his\n letters pertained to skirmishes in \n Princeton , and mentioned Colonel \n Gabriel Calvin Wharton , General \n Henry Heth , General \n [John Buchanan] Floyd , and General \n Humphrey Marshall . Later, on August 26,\n 1863, he wrote of a visit to the \n \"Stone Wall Brigade\" while at \n Liberty Mills . In November 1863, in camp\n near \n Blountville, Tennessee , he wrote of his\n command witnessing the execution of three deserters from the\n Confederate Army, their orders to move toward \n Knoxville, Tennessee and rumors of \n Knoxville being captured by General \n James Longstreet . During November 4-22\n the siege of \n Knoxville was underway, but the\n Confederate Army was forced to retreat in early December. On\n May 1, 1864, while encamped near his home, \n Max Meadows , he wrote that it was his\n duty to remain with his company while so close to their home.\n Soon afterwards, on May 15th, he was killed in the Battle of \n New Market while leading a charge. At his\n death he was Captain of \n Company B, 51st Regiment, Wharton's\n Brigade .","","University of Virginia. Library.

His letters during this\n time were mostly concerned with school, family and friends in \n \u003cgeogname\u003eWythe County\u003c/geogname\u003e, and wanting news of the\n \"ladies.\" On January 10, 1861, he wrote his brother John\n mentioning that he wanted to finish school but that he\n anticipated being called upon to fight soon. On May ll, 1861,\n he enlisted in the \n \u003ccorpname\u003eWythe Grays\u003c/corpname\u003ewhich later became \n \u003ccorpname\u003eCompany A of the 4th Regiment of\n Virginia\u003c/corpname\u003e, organized April 28, 1861; the regiment\n was accepted into Confederate service on July 1, 1861.

And, as their marching\n continued, he wondered about their purpose. An interesting\n letter of April 3, 1862, pertains to their orders to take\n their pieces of artillery to \n \u003cgeogname\u003eStaunton, Virginia\u003c/geogname\u003eand having to use\n muskets again, the men wanting transfers to artillery and\n cavalry companies, and losing some 76 men in their regiment\n while fighting on March 23 (probably at the \n \u003ccorpname\u003eFirst Battle of Kernstown, Virginia\u003c/corpname\u003e).

During 1863,\n the Confederate armies seemed to be faced with severe\n hardships, including a shortage of rations, the reduction of\n transportation, and the scarcity of \"white labor.\" In the\n spring of 1863, James revealed his disappointment in southern\n farmers for avoiding their duty by not growing grain to feed\n the men in the Confederate armies. In a March 1863 letter,\n Tate mentions \n \u003cpersname\u003e\"Jeb\" Stuart\u003c/persname\u003e's fight with the enemy,\n calling it a \"right brilliant little affair,\" probably in\n reference to the Battle of \n \u003cgeogname\u003eKelly's Ford\u003c/geogname\u003ein late December when the\n Federal Army pulled back from the site after a day's fighting.\n The following month, April 1863, he writes of marching toward \n \u003cgeogname\u003ePort Royal\u003c/geogname\u003eto meet the enemy who was\n crossing \n \u003cgeogname\u003e[the Rappahannock]\u003c/geogname\u003e, only to find that\n they had recrossed. At this time there had been a three-day\n Federal expedition operating from \n \u003cgeogname\u003eBell Plain\u003c/geogname\u003eto Port Royal. In late October\n 1863, Tate describes the engagement at \n \u003cgeogname\u003eBristoe Station\u003c/geogname\u003eon the 14th which brought\n criticism to General \n \u003cpersname\u003eAmbrose P.

In his September 4, 1857, letter, he gave a\n lengthy description of living in \"encampment,\" mentioning the\n barracks and guard duty. As early as October 1857, he was\n looking forward to the cadets' trip to \n \u003cgeogname\u003eRichmond\u003c/geogname\u003ein February 1858; and, on March\n 8, 1858, he wrote an interesting and lengthy account of the\n trip to \n \u003cgeogname\u003eRichmond\u003c/geogname\u003eduring which the cadets\n represented the \n \u003ccorpname\u003eVirginia Military Institute\u003c/corpname\u003eat the\n dedication of the Crawford equestrian statue of \n \u003cpersname\u003eGeorge Washington\u003c/persname\u003ein the city's Capitol\n Square on February 22, 1858.

Between October 1859 and June 1860, his\n letters contained news of the school; and, on February 14,\n 1860, he mentioned a trip to Richmond being planned by \"Uncle\n David\" [Squire \n \u003cpersname\u003eDavid Graham\u003c/persname\u003e] and his father. During this\n time he was on the muster roll of the \n \u003ccorpname\u003eWythe Grays\u003c/corpname\u003e, although his real military\n service was in the \n \u003ccorpname\u003e51st Regiment of the Virginia Volunteers\u003c/corpname\u003e.\n He was elected First Lieutenant upon its organization in May\n 1861. On November 20, 1861, he described their retreat from \n \u003cgeogname\u003eCotton Hill\u003c/geogname\u003ewhich resulted in considerable\n loss of property, General \n \u003cpersname\u003eJohn Buchanan Floyd\u003c/persname\u003e's delay and retreat\n tactics, and illness among the men. In May and June 1862, his\n letters pertained to skirmishes in \n \u003cgeogname\u003ePrinceton\u003c/geogname\u003e, and mentioned Colonel \n \u003cpersname\u003eGabriel Calvin Wharton\u003c/persname\u003e, General \n \u003cpersname\u003eHenry Heth\u003c/persname\u003e, General \n \u003cpersname\u003e[John Buchanan] Floyd\u003c/persname\u003e, and General \n \u003cpersname\u003eHumphrey Marshall\u003c/persname\u003e.

In November 1863, in camp\n near \n \u003cgeogname\u003eBlountville, Tennessee\u003c/geogname\u003e, he wrote of his\n command witnessing the execution of three deserters from the\n Confederate Army, their orders to move toward \n \u003cgeogname\u003eKnoxville, Tennessee\u003c/geogname\u003eand rumors of \n \u003cgeogname\u003eKnoxville\u003c/geogname\u003ebeing captured by General \n \u003cpersname\u003eJames Longstreet\u003c/persname\u003e.
