"The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 10, No. 59, September, 1862" by Various is a literary magazine published during the mid-19th century. The volume includes a collection of essays, short stories, and other written works that reflect on various themes of literature, art, and politics relevant to that period. In its opening portion, the magazine introduces the story of Joe Scofield and his daughter, Dode, set against the backdrop of the American Civil War, exploring their lives, beliefs, and the conflicts arising from their sentiments regarding the war and personal relationships. The opening of this volume paints a vivid picture of life in the Virginian Alleghanies, characterized by cold winters and the struggles of two old men, one white and one black, as they perform their nightly routine. Joe Scofield, a staunch supporter of the Confederate cause, grapples with personal loss while preparing for an upcoming Union meeting, revealing his complex character shaped by grief and loyalty. His daughter, Dode, is portrayed as a compassionate yet conflicted young woman, torn between her love for the local Methodist preacher, David Gaunt, and her staunchly held religious beliefs. Their interactions set the stage for a story that delves into themes of duty, faith, and the personal impact of war, establishing a rich emotional landscape for subsequent narratives in the magazine.
