Named Entity Results, G. T. Beauregard

A good suggestion. A Staunton correspondent, after giving an account of the surprise at Phillippi, urges the propriety of sending Henry A. Wise, with his partisan Legion, at once to Northwestern Virginia. He adds: Gen. Wise is the very man for that country and that people. He can do more with them and for them than Gen. Beauregard himself. Please say to Gen. Wise, that it is suggested that he visit President Davis without delay, and request the loan of the 600 Choctaw warriors in or about Norfolk, for four weeks only. Gen. Wise, commanding his Legion and our Choctaw friends, could settle little matters of difference which might arise between themselves on the one hand, and Carlile, late of Dayton, Rockingham county, Va., Brown of Preston, Major Gen.

e would but just give us a chance. We are expecting him every night. Our pickets are very watchful. Just at this time of my writing, I see on my left our 4th Corporal, J. McD., seated on a flour barrel, being shaved by W. H. D., better known as "Rectus," in which he handles the razor with the air of an experienced barber. The job being done, he demands the pay, but our Corporal could not agree to settle until he had combed his hair, which, being done, he settles the account.
