Diary of a Southern Refugee During the War by Judith White McGuire
    

“We have been anxiously awaiting the result of an anticipated fight between Price and Fremont…”—Diary of a Southern Refugee, Judith White McGuire.

15th.—This was fast-day—a national fast proclaimed by our President. I trust that every church in the Confederacy was well filled with heart-worshippers. The Rev. Mr. Jones preached for us at Millwood. This whole household was there—indeed, the whole neighbourhood turned out.

We have been anxiously awaiting the result of an anticipated fight between Price and Fremont; but Fremont was superseded while almost in the act of making the attack. We await further developments.
