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 & Billy and the rest are all well
 
Give my love to Mother
Sisters & Bros same to yourself
            from your aff Bro
