Dear Sister & Brother

                        I shal attempt to rite you a few lines once more to let you kno that I am still in the Army & am quite well. We expected to get musterd out last monday & now have the promice of to morrow, but we did not get it for it is now the 30^th & we ar still here yet. We shal start for home Saturday or sunday shure We shal probaly stop in Rochester 15 or 20 days after we get there, before we get our pay. this is a very warm day. I saw Will last week he was well. Mary I have no news to write this morning of any note 

 

George how dose the Draft get along by this time. how far did you toward the front. George I promised to give you a few instructions about soldiering when I rote again, but it does not need it now for soldiering in the field has plaid out for a while. george when I recd your last letter I was lying behind the breastworks waiting for Jhonnys & when I got so I had time to rite the fiting was plaid out. tell Margarate Noble & the what do you call it that I shal be out in that part of the country some time this year, but do not kno when. I shal have to close hoping you will excuse me for not riting.
