Confederate General Stephen D. Lee CDV half view in uniform. A regular
officer in the U.S. Army, he resigned soon after secession to join the South
Carolina Militia and delivered the historic demand to the Union to evacuate
Fort Sumter, effectively starting the war. He served in the Seven Days battles,
Second Manassas and Sharpsburg before becoming Pemberton's chief of artillery
in the Vicksburg campaign where he distinguished himself at Champion Hill.
Captured and exchanged, Lee served at Atlanta and in the abortive
Franklin-Nashville campaign, finally surrendering with Joseph E. Johnston in
North Carolina. No back mark.
