A WAR TIME LETTER.
Written in 1862 by Soldier of the Union
Army.

ehhJ'
BY request we publish the following
letter from Fl P. Sprague to his
mother, written at Camp Coal Harbor,
near Chicahomeny, May 2S, 1852:
Ny Dear Mother:-I take few
moments leisure to write few lines
to you. have been quite sick for
week. but feel some better to-day.
| hope you are enjoying good health.
| wrote a letter to Hannah and did not
intend writing any more, but after
wards decided to write to you for fear
you would think | had forgotten you
in these times OF trouble and tribu-
lation, but, dear mother, never fear,
| can never forget the one that has
been SO kind to me and watched over
me from infancy up to manhood, and
| know in these times, when war is
agitating our beloved country and
thousands have rushed to arms to de-
fend her against our ruthless foe. and
| am one among that number. and |
know that a mothers prayers ascend
to heaven daily for my protection, i'm
ploring God, in His mercy, to spare
my life to return safely home again,
ungrateful, indeed, would I be did
forget my mother.
But | must now write something
about the news OF the day. This morn
ing we heard that Banks had been
defeated in the Shenandoah Valley and
that rich an1 fertile country had fallen
into the hands OF the enemy but we
think, perhaps, it is one of General
McClellans stratagems to draw the
rebel force or part OF it, into trap
so as to catch them. When | wrote
to Hannah | felt rather bad about it,
but since | wrote her letter the news
has come that Mcdowell has given
them thrashing. II this is true they
have given them terrible check, for
this is the force the enemy had sent
out to destroy McDowell's army, march
on to Washington and take the Capitol
and from there to Philadelphia, then
to New York and then to declare peace
on their own terms, but / think now
their high anticipations are gone, and
they will never see these places only
as prisoners of war
don't know how soon we will get
into fight. I expect 1t will come be.
fore long for we are close upon them.
l hope when it comes our turn that
we will be able to give them good
sound thrashing. l cannot tell how
soon we will move from this camp.
There has been canponading today and
when we hear the booming OF cannon
we generally take it for an omen that
we will soon march, and, perhaps be.
