Notes
Content: Printed on border: "The Confederate Ordnance Armory at Charleston, S. C., contained a splendid collection of arms, among which were specimens of all the arms known in modern warfare. Here were found the Minie, Warner and Colt's rifles, muskets of every possible make--breech, muzzle and chamber-loading pieces; also the terrible ten- and twelve-shooters known as Lindsay's repeaters. With this latter death-dealing weapon all the officers in the company were armed."
