A Huge Man

There is said to be a Confederate soldier in one of the North Carolina regiments, stationed in the eastern part of the State,who is at least 7 feet high, measures 55 inches around the waist, 36 in the leg and wears number 14 shoes. A special contract for clothing this "rebel" has to be made, for he cant begin to wear the ordinary size.
