From our visit to the Museum of the Confederacy:
Frock, saddle, saber, hat, pistols, writing desk, etc. all worn by and belonging to Gen. Jeb Stuart.

Look at the size of that frock coat's waistline. Not an extra ounce on General Stuart.
Food was very short by then and had been short for quite some time. Ain't easy to be a proper soldier on real short rations.
Always liked my eats, myself.
Just terrible to lose such good men. We need their great great grandchildren now. Blood always tells. Such a loss.
