sdging the receipt Of . box of clothing and
hospital stores sent to my company by the
kind ladies Of St, Cloud. It contains the sew
sral articles mentioned in your letter. Its re-
ceipt however Was delayed somewhat by our
being absent on the expedition into East Ten
neSsee.
This generous supply Of things is much be-
Ioud our present need, and owing to the re-
slrictions put upon our transportation all that
cannot be Immediately used by the men will
be turned over to the Hospital for the c,mfort
Of The sick in general. Every man in my CON-
psny however, will receive some one of the ar
ticles and 1 am quite sure they will be held
ss much more than their intrinsic value on &C.

ners. TIE labor Of the camp, the long night
watches, the fatigue Of extraordinary marches
seem much lighter when We feel We are remem-
bersd 1t home.
