Gardening. Hunter has had a fight at James Island off Charleston on the 16th. We have only rebel accounts which claim a victory for the South.
Peggy's comments:
It was indeed a Confederate victory, and
although a minor one,
it generated a large amount of positive press for the South.
Published in Harpers, July 5, 1862
