"Fayetteville [Arkansas] was a town with a population of about 4,000 pleasantly situated on a high and dry position, surrounded by hills from which issued many springs of fine water. This place being now an Army Depot, there were several of our commisary and quartermaster's stores here, and factories established for the manufacture of army wagons, gun carriages, ordnance stores, ammunition, etc." - Sergeant William Watson, 3rd Louisiana Infantry, December, 1861, - From the Book, "Life in the Confederate Army" by Sergeant William Watson.
