Description: Confederate blockade-run cover This cover is from one of the Hincks brothers to his father. The letter was probably placed aboard a blockade runner and handed over in Nassau to a ship bound for New Orleans. Upon arrival in New Orleans on January 8, 1865, the letter was treated as an unpaid incoming ship letter and marked with ten cents due.
