Excerpt from Report of the Proceedings in Connection With the Monument Erected by Daniel Butterfield, U. S, V. At Fredericksburg, Va: In Honor of the Fifth Corps, Army of the Potomac, and Presentation of a Tablet by the 12th N. Y. Regiment Association to the Oneida Historical Society, Utica, New York
The sacrifices, the privations incurred in these fair Vir ginia homes, desolated and pillaged, amply merit the noble tribute of General Robert E. Lee: History presents no instance of a people exhibiting a more unselfish patriotism, or a higher spirit of fortitude and courage than was evinced by the citizens of Fredericksburg.
