From Mary Jane Peery to My Dear Sister
-
Description

This letter, dated October 11, 1865, is from Mary Jane Peery to her sister. Peery writes that her husband, the preacher J.T. Peery, has refused to take an Oath of Loyalty to the United States Government.

The Northerners still hold our church and parsonage in Independence and say they will not give it up."
