EDS. JOURNAL: Your most welcome paper comes
to hand abont four days subsequent to its pubca-
ton. Its home news is highly appreciated by us
all. You will remember our communication was
cut off in August last. News from home was then
hard to get. ... ... .....
About the 2Sth of July joined the Ohio Steel
Gun Battery, and since then many trying scenes
haYe Witnessed; many brave man has tallen
who never again will reach Ohios soil
The boys who enlisted with me AT TontOgany,
are mostly well-twenty- in number. Three of
them have been wounded, one drowned an
other died of disease, and one was discharged.
Captain Alexander Marshall, true soldier, is
willing, at any time, with the assistance of Lieu
tenants Whittlesey and Bills, to take his Battery
into action, and the boys attached thereto will
stand by their guns.
The health of the army is good, the members Of
the Battery especially. THOMAS MAJOR.
