The Lost And The Found - Ellen Eschell Murphy - Bog

Vol II - The Lost and The Found Henry had known anything was possible in this awful civil war - But the nightmare of his son not returning was the worst! Jamie was the light of everyone's life who knew him but that didn't mean invincible! Would the hundreds of bodies and injured in Gettysburg tell him anything? VMI is an excellent school and trains young men for the military with expertise - but Mildred didn't want Robert going - but man-like nothing would do but go. Then war broke out - then he was missing - then, the war ended, and he was STILL missing. Dear Lord, I've tried to be a good wife, mother and neighbor as you would wish - but it this the result? People in the western part of Northern Virginia were not accustomed to anyone with a foreign accent but Grethen Harper, wife and mother, would charm them and with her husband Thomas would develop a huge farm - but neither friendly neighbors nor successful farming would prevent a terrible attack on Thomas because of an antiquated law.
