  <abstract>Principally letters written by Cope and letters received from his family while he was serving as a private in the Ohio Infantry, 98th Regiment, which served with General William T. Sherman's army on its march to Atlanta. Cope's letters, some of which were sent from Buzzard Roost Gap (Mill Creek Gap), Marietta, and a camp near Atlanta, all in Georgia, describe army life among the rank and file, food supplies, and hospitalization. Letters from his family relate to agriculture, family affairs, and business conditions in Ohio and Missouri.</abstract>
