HOLDER, Joseph M. Cpl./Pvt. Farmer. *Enrolled 29 Apr 61 at Winchester, aged 22 as 3rd Cpl; absent May & June 63, sick at hospital; deserted from 27 Aug 63.* ~ Joseph Mitchell HOLDER was born 09 Aug 1838 at Franklin Co., TN, d. 1 Sept. 1914, Hood or Erath Co., TX. He wrote a letter to the Dallas News Simi-Weekly, July 16, 1913:

I am an old confederate soldier and have come to tell you all some of my experience in life. I enlisted in the First Tennessee Regiment. It was commanded by Pete Turney, best known by the soldiers as "Old Pete". I was in Company I, my captain was my uncle Joe Holder. We enlisted at Cowan Station and left Winchester on the 1st of May 1861 for Lynchburg, VA. We were kept there several weeks before we drew arms. Our first guns were improved muskets. Our first brigade commanders were Gen. Bell and Gen. Archer, Stonewall Jacksons Division, Lee's Corp. I was in many hot places, Bull Rull (second battle of Manassas) Fredericksville and Chancellorsville. At the time my health began to fail and I was assigned to Richmond to help defend the dity against raids. It would take a big book to tell my ups and downs. At one time I was nine weeks without a change of clothing, as I had put my other cloths on my brother, who was shot in the arm at Manassas. Being in bad health, I got leave of absence and was at home at the time of surrender. After the surrender I made a trip to Mississippi where I married Miss Sallie Gregory. She was the daughter of Alfred Gregory. I was then 30 years old. This was in 1866, and we lived in Stawamble Co. until 1877, when we came to Texas and rented land in Big Valley, Parker County and from there we moved to Erath Co. on Kickapoo Creek where I bought a home. Then hard times began sure enough. My horses died and for three years I worked oxen. I had to clear my land, as ther was not a foot of land in cultivation. We built a little log house without any floors. Then my wife took sick and lay at deaths door for 40 days. But the nieghbors were kind and helped up in many ways. We were about 9 years paying for the homestead. After that I bought 337 acres and settled two of my children on part of it. We had some hard times and lived most of the time on bread and butter and milk. I had to use much economy to keep from being involved in debt. Four of our married children live on the home place, and the rest near by. I lost one son after he was grown and four died in infancy. I feel like my many hard trials are numbered in the past. I am 78 years old and on account of bad health my life is still full of worry. I haven't seend a well day since my exposure of the war. I came near losing my eyes soon after the war and was away from home four months, under the care of an acculist at Union City, Tenn. My afflictions have kept me in hard circumstances. In 1867 at Moorsville, MS., I was made a Master Mason. I have nine brothers-in-law, all Master Masons. My mother is still living. She lives in the old home in Franklin Co., TN. Her youngest son cares for her. If she lives until September she will be 95 years old. She has three children living, and four dead. She has 29 grandchildren, 111 great grandchildren alive. We are having some hot weather now and if the drought continues, I believe the Government will have to give aid. It hasn't rained since April. I am fond of reading all letters, especially those of the old veterans. Have read with interest the letters on the coming campaign, and will say with all good feeling that I am a natural bornh Anti. and hope my country will always have liberty and freedom for which I have helped fight. I have the greatest respect for law and order, and think we should not pass laws that can not be at least partly enforced. If any of the old boys see this I would be glad to hear from them. With best wishes to the good old news and all its readers, I will close my letter. J.M. Holder, Lipan, Hood Co. Texas. Submitted to this page by: Traci Parsons-Holder .
