[ Autographs ] (Battle Of Fredericksburg) A highly detailed newspaperaccount of the battle of Fredericksburg, as reported in Moore's RuralNew Yorker, a weekly newspaper, Rochester, Dec. 20, 1862, but probably published several days earlier. The newspaper describes events leading to the battle as well as the battle itself. Though attempting to be factual, the account still contains several notable errors. For example, rebel forces were estimated to comprise over 200000 effectives! Fine.
