Описание: One of the Confederate officers ordered to carry out the burning of Chambersburg, Pa., on July 30, 1864, was 1st Lt. Fred Smith, the son of former Virginia Gov. William "Extra Billy" Smith. Fred returned home with two beautiful silver goblets and a story about his chivalry that day. But a Chambersburg reverend and eyewitness had a very different story to tell.
