    Description

    Original letter from Ulysses Doubleday Civil War General to his nephew Stephen Ward Doubleday (son of Thomas Donnelly Doubleday (brother of Abner Doubleday of Baseball fame) whose photo I also have up for auction).
    Ulysses Doubleday (August 31, 1824 – February 11, 1893) was a Union Army colonel during the American Civil War. In 1866 he was nominated and confirmed for appointment to the grade of brevet brigadier general of volunteers, to rank from March 13, 1865.
    Stephen Ward Doubleday was my great-grandfather.
    This letter is in good condition for its age. It was in a trunk with a bunch of my grandmother’s old photos.
    The letter will be packed safely for shipment.
