Thomas Ellerbe Powe was a distinguished physician in Cheraw SC. He and his wife were members of St. David's Episcopal Church in Cheraw and their graves are in the old church yard. The following letter was written by Dr. Thomas Ellerbe Powe to his nephew, John Witherspoon Ervin. The letter is worthy of preservation because it portrays with fidelity the privations occasioned the south by the Civil War
Cheraw, South Carolina
July 25th, 1868
Dear Witherspoon:
Your very welcome and much prized letter was received some weeks since after a tedious journey. I would have replied at an earlier date but could not give you the information I desired, in consequence of not being able to see some gentlemen I wished to consult, and now, after obtaining all the information that I can respecting a farm that would come up to one that you wish, I must say that no such an one can be purchased within the scope of my knowledge. Small farms are much in demand and to carve one out of a large plantation, would impair very seriously the value of the remainder of the land. The farm you refer to formerly owned by Col. Harllee is reguarded as worthless and almost entirely destitute of timbered land. I am rejoiced to hear of your promising family and would be delighted to see them. Hattie and Johnnie are living with me. Hattie Godfrey has but one child (a daughter) living- has had three. Johnnie is not married nor very likely to be soon, he is so much taken up with farming and his dogs, his time and mind are too much employed to think much about the girls, much to my grief. He keeps a splendid pack of fix hounds and catches foxes at all seasons, at night in warm weather. Carrie has had eight children five living. James has three living, two girls and a son. James is the very personification of industry and contentment. You perhaps know that he was Captain of Artillery at the storming of Ft. Wagner and was wounded in 8 places or parts of his body, and the right extremities were paralyzed for 18 months. But thanks be to a merciful God his life was spared and he can now cut wood, plow or do any kind of work, which he does with a will. He has now given up his profession and gone heartily into farming and horticulture. He is here reguarded as a model farmer for success and industry and application.
I like every one else reguard myself dreadfully used up by Mr. Sherman's army. It so happened that a Corps encamped on each of my plantations for 4 days. They burnt my mills, barnes, gin houses and did not leave me a hoof or a cow or hog and but one horse out of 40 and that one Capt. McIver had in service and not a feather of a fowl or anything else but a part of the clothes we had on. Every thing went but the bare walls of my dwelling house. I rose one morning with 135 persons looking to me for supplies and had not a quart of corn or an ounce of meat, but the Almighty prepared a way for us to live, and we have lived.
I have not grieved over my losses one moment but went vigorously to work to repair damages. I reguarded it the act and will of the Almighty and that we were chastened in mercy, and those that received it in that light it would be blessed to them. But the lamented dead we cannot recover and that is a cup of sorrow. Poor dear Thomas, I am so happy to say, died the death of a Christian soldier, but it was in a lonely field hospital on the battle field of Gettysburg. We are deeply interested in your tale of the Female Spy and feel to have a possession in it.
Give our love to Cousin Laura and each of your children.
Yr. Affectionate Uncle,
T.E. Powe
