His third letter of July 13, 1864, was written near Atlanta and references his letter of May 5. Buck devotes this last letter to a description of an army on the march through devastated country. He notes that the troops were on half ration and that there was nothing that could be foraged and consumed. He also noted the toll on Iowa regiment as these units skirmished with Confederate forces. He bemoans the loss of "General McPherson" who had been critical to the success of union movement. There is no question that union troops are driven by hunger to end the war as quickly as possible.

"These letters from a yeoman farmer in the Confederate Army to his wife in Coosa County, Alabama, will be of interest to historians not only for the light shed upon the life of the Confederate soldier, but also for frequent allusions to rural life and the operation of the farm in Cotton's absence. He enlisted at Pinckneyville, Alabama, on April 1, 1862, and was paroled at Talladega on May 25, 1865. During the intervening years he saw action in Tennessee and Kentucky, in the Dalton-Atlanta campaign, briefly again in Tennessee, then in Georgia against the forces of Sherman, moving finally into South Carolina.... These letters constitute an authentic record of a typical Confederate soldier's experience," ---Journal of Southern History
