Ken,
I would be glad to scan the VanZandt letter and email to you. The letter is quite long but here is the narrative concerning the flag;
" We went through a portion of the country where soldiers have never been and consequently met with much kindness at the hands of the
of the citizens. I ate dinner one day with two widows, one a young one, & had a very fine dinner indeed. And in Woodville I was
presented with another " flag " but it was dark & I could not see the donor nor do I know her name, but of course presume she was
pretty. "

I'll send you the scan tomorrow when I am back in my office.

Tom
