The ground covered
with snow this morning -- which was
very unexpected as every one thought the
cold weather was over -- snowed & sleeted all day-- There was a
fight near Petersburg to day in which
Gen Pegram was killed -- he was
married ^'only' a few weeks since to the
beautiful Miss Cary! The particulars
of the fight not yet known.
General John Pegram (1832-1865) was killed in a fight at Hatcher's Run. His wife of 18 days, Hetty Car Cary Pegram (1836-1892), later married Henry Newall Martin, a Johns Hopkins professor.
