This is an account from a northern woman who witnessed our Confederate soldiers of Lee's Army of Northern Virginia marching through Frederick during 1862 Maryland Campaign. “this body of men moving along with no order. Their guns carried in every fashion, no two dressed alike. The officers hardly distinguishable from the privates…….Were these the men who had driven back again and again our splendid legions ? They were the dirtiest men I ever saw…the most ragged , lean, and hungry set of wolves.
