Dear Bro

Dear Bro
I intended to write to you before leaving Annapolis on Sunday last but had no time on account of the hurry in starting. We left Annapolis on Sunday morning stopping in Baltimore until Monday Evening passed through Harrisburgh that night, reaching Pittsburgh Tuesday night and this place this morning we are now awaiting transportation and may be off in the course of half an hour
I have very poor accommodations to write so I just write enough / to let you know where we are
I & Billy and the rest are all well
Give my love to Mother
Sisters & Bros same to yourself
from your aff Bro
Daniel Davis
You can direct your letters to the Regt.
