This was the farthest north any uniformed Confederate troops penetrated into Union territory during the War. Head-and-shoulders image of an older Morgan in uniform. Photographed by Lumpkin & Tomlinson of Richmond, the image bears several small areas of albumen loss around edges and at lower third. Two-cent revenue stamp on verso. Moderate age toning.
