Hear the voice of a Confederate veteran

Confederate veteran Julius Howell was 101 years old when he made the following recording. Click on the little speaker symbol below where it says Voice from the past on Lincoln anniversary. What a cool thing to hear an actual veteran from the war.~Gary

Interesting Gary.
I really like his accent and he seems to be at his wits despite the high age.

Thanks for sharing.
