My
dear sister,
.
. . .Pensacola presents a sad scene, every where the eye turns it rests on
demolished buildings, and destroyed shrubbery, and as you pass along the shrub
you must thread your way through milk weeks and long grass . . . . The old
citizens who left are making arrangements to return here at as early a day as
possible. Many houses are requiring
a great deal of work on them, that is, those that are standing, while some must
build entirely new ones. . . .
