Lieutenant William James Fisher, Civil War Soldier

I. M. Fisher Esq., My Dear Sir:

Your son George has called on me for a newspaper having an account of your son’s death, said to have taken place at Gettysburg, Pa.

I have looked through the casualties pretty generally and have failed to find the name of your son, but I find that of Lt. Harvey Fisher, 145th Pa. Vols. He was wounded which, I expect, gave rise to the report of your son being killed.

I am unwell at this time; hardly able to sit up, and have not been from home since last Thursday.

Respectfully yours, I. N. Fooks

I.N. Fooks to Isaac Fisher
