Domestic Economy in the Confederacy
Incontestable Facts  

From an 1886 Atlantic Monthly article by David Dodge

How all these exactions were met, all these burdens borne, is one of those problems which inexorable necessity alone has ever been able to solve. That they were cheerfully borne, and that through all hardships and grievances the belief of the great mass of the people in the Confederacy survived to the end, are incontestable facts.
