inst and found every thing - y. have
been quite well except four days sea sness. 1 was
very sea sick. Since on land, we ba commenced
picking up, and the climate agrees Us all very
WE'LL There Is no epidemic prcvailng-ine measles
are in camp and some few Deaths but not more ac-
cording to the number than there at home. This
island is miles from Point Isabel and is beautiful
country. We were six days in coming from New
Orleans to this point. We shall remain here 10 or
ID days, then we shall move up to Bertha ID miles
from here and 10 miles from Point Isabel-this point
is thirty miles from Matamoras. 1t is not known
exactly what the Mexicans are about at present. We
shall not have any fighting to do until November at
the farthes and may be not then. 1t is all involved
in mystery as yet. The Indianapolis boys are gene
rally well. l saw John Dunlap and the other boys
to-day, and they fine and fat. There is no ndi-
cation as yet at about what time any further steps will
be taken-we shall hear before long what course will
be pursued. One thing, no more volunteers will be
required. What are now here can whip all Mexico
and what other provinces that may wish to assist.
have seen quite a number of Mexicans and they ap-
pear to be quite eeminate race and all accounts
represent them being anxious to settle the matter
amicably If that is the case, the CALIFORNIA; viii
have to come, and Mexico will pay all expenses.
The governmental expenses quite heavy and must
necessarily increase the expenditures in degree,
and 1t may happen that the viii cost more than
it comes to-though there is difficulty in whipping
her decenty. am inclined to think that this climate
is very healthy. We have lots of fresh oysters and
all kinds of sh-sea bathing, game of all kinds and
a most splendid breeze all the time. have no
more fears here of sickness than / should have at
home. You will please write. Direct your letter to
me at Point Isabel, Texas, I'd Regiment Indiana Vol
unteers, and shall beeertain to get it. You will
write immediately Res6llect me to my friends and
inform them all that am well and well satisfied, and
that should there be fight. Indiana will give good
account of herself So for the present good bye.
remain yours, affectonately, T. B. K.
