RR71

CSA #7 Horz Pair (margin tight at the bottom right and a little edge gum toning) tied by a full and much better than average strike of the Wartrace N & C RR (Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad) oval postmark 6 JUN 1863. Light coarse paper cover addressed to Miss Orpha Jane Paine, Washington, Tennessee. Minor staining and foxing on the front of the cover but more prominent staining seen only on the reverse. Very presentable  cover The cover was very possibly sent by Rowland Foster McDonald (1824-1898) from Rhea County, Tennessee, who served in the Tennessee Home Guard (State Militia Unit) during the war. In 1866 after the war, Rowland Foster McDonald and Orpha Jane Paine (1834-1891) also from Rhea County, Tennesseee, were married.
