Eleanor and Valentine – Chapter 5
1864

The last letter they got from Valentine was in May. Napoleon came home in December missing a foot and 30 pounds lighter. Eleanor ran across town to the Weiss porch where family and friends were gathered to hear the news.

“Valentine is alive, but he’s at a prison camp in Georgia.”

Hiram Weiss held up his hand and everyone stopped talking.

“Which camp?”

Napoleon looked at his father and then at Eleanor and then at the ground.

“Andersonville.”
