The dawning of a
doubt is a troublesome thing, for if a doubt does not out and out destroy
faith, it assuredly chastens it to an uncomfortable degree. Is he coming, that
terrible Sherman, with all his legions? Well, and if he does, Beauregard is
coming too, and Hampton and Butler are already here, so where's the sense of
getting worried? I shall continue to possess my soul in peace.
