1863réf. 215941863. Medal of Honor Recipient Moses Veale Signed Civil War muster out roll dated June 8 1863 documents the discharge of 1st Lieutenant Orson Foot of the 60th New York Volunteer Infantry so he could accept a commission as Captain during the opening phase of the Gettysburg campaign. Issued at Aquia Creek Virginia the document bears the signature of Captain Moses Veale as mustering officer a Union officer later awarded the Medal of Honor for extraordinary gallantry during the Civil War. Veale's citation records that during the Battle of Wauhatchie Tennessee he continued directing his men after being struck by four enemy bullets and having his horse shot from under him. The presence of Veale's signature transforms the document from routine military administration into a signed record connected to one of the war's most decorated acts of battlefield courage. At the same time the roll records Foot's discharge to accept promotion during the Gettysburg Campaign. Foot Orson. Civil War muster out roll. Aquia Creek Virginia June 8 1863. One manuscript sheet completed in official Union Army muster format and signed by Captain Moses Veale as mustering officer. The document certifies that the officer "carefully examined this Roll. and mustered the said Orson Foot for discharge; and I hereby honorably discharge him from the service of the United States." It records Foot's enrollment at Ogdensburg New York on September 16 1861 identifies his rank as 1st Lieutenant in the 60th New York Volunteer Infantry and notes in the remarks that he was mustered out "to accept Commission of Captain." The sheet therefore documents the administrative transition by which an officer left one commission to assume another within the wartime command structure. The document's date and place situate it at the evacuation of Aquia Creek Landing one of the Army of the Potomac's principal logistical bases. Established during earlier campaigns in northern Virginia Aquia Creek served as a major supply depot linking Washington with Union forces in the field. As Robert E. Lee advanced north in June 1863 the Union command dismantled and abandoned the installation to support the army's rapid movement toward Pennsylvania. By the very day this roll was issued June 8 Federal forces were evacuating and destroying the depot to prevent its use by Confederate troops. Foot's promotion therefore occurred amid the redeployment that would culminate at the Battle of Gettysburg. Single manuscript sheet measuring approximately 32 x 11 inches when unfolded. Some age toning scattered ink staining and edge wear consistent with large-format wartime administrative documents; overall good condition. A substantial Civil War military document combining Gettysburg campaign context with the signature of Medal of Honor recipient Moses Veale whose later battlefield heroism makes his autograph particularly desirable within Civil War military manuscripts. A substantial Civil War military document produced during the evacuation of Aquia Creek and the opening phase of the Gettysburg campaign. unknown books

David Berg was the founder and leader of the Children of God cult which at its height of popularity reached tens of thousands of members including River and Joaquin Phoenix and Rose McGowan. In 1976 Berg encouraged followers to use a method of evangelism he termed "Flirty Fishing" which used sexual intimacy to attract men to the cult who would otherwise not be open to it. After ex-members accused the group of decades of abuse a British court found the group to be an authoritarian cult which "engaged in the systematic physical and sexual abuse of children." Berg sent out approximately 3000 "Mo Letters" on various subjects to communicate with his followers. This one addresses the "white devils" and calls on his "Sons of All Colours" for more diversity in carrying on the Revolution for Jesus. Mo Letter No. 105. Children of God unknown books
