Abstract:
In the summer of 1865, James Ellis Malone was thirteen years old and living in the Yankee occupied Franklin County town of Louisburg. He recorded his recollections in a journal that was handed down to his grandson, Edward L. Best. Excerpts quoted directly from the journal make up the bulk of the article, and include references to General J. E. B. Stuart, the 1st N.C. Cavalry, and Union Generals William T. Sherman and Oliver O. Howard.
