Eastport, Miss., Nov. 3, 1863.

 

Dear Sister:

                        I just this moment received your letter of the 27^th. The mail closes in a few minutes, and I will merely write a word to let you know where I am. Eastport is on the Tennessee River 8 miles from Iuka. Shermans Army is crossing here. Possibly our Brigade may remain as a force is to be left here. I will write you as soon as I can again. My health is good.

 

                        Direct your next to this point.

           

Your Brother
