Pencil Drawing of 104th Reg., New York Volunteers
A small amateur drawing of the camp, with surrounding terrain, occupied by the 104th Regiment, New York State Volunteers near Belle Plains, Virginia, during the Civil War. Created about 1862-1865. The principle supply depot for the Union Army of the Potomac was at Belle Plains. It is said to be a drawing by George R. Hall of the above-mentioned regiment, although it is probably a copy, perhaps after a published wood-engraving by H. Besancon (whose name appears on the left of the drawing). A view of the supply depot at Belle Plains, after Theodore Davis, appears in Harper's Weekly, Dec. 20, 1862, page 805. |
