nice place it is. Was a little home
sick at first, but soon got over that. |
They had a call for choice. Some |
want to go home and some want TO !
60 to the front. / want to 60 to the |
front, but do not think | will get to |
go. We had review of all the troops |
here, and it was grand. About 40, 900 |
men were in line of march. Also a |
sham battle. 1t was good. too. Well, |
as it is Sunday, and no drill, | will |
rest. Give my regards to all my |
friends. Hope all the old officers are
elected, that is, Fletcher and others"

evening under the auspices of the St.
