I resume my scribling this morning my arm is so lame I cant hardly get my pen from my paper to the ink bottle and back to the paper but I will try to finish my writing
 
March 28 my arm was so lame I could not finish my letter the 22d and since that I have not had time and I have not much time this morning to write our regiment has been removed we are now at Lebanon 113 miles from Louisville if you have a map you can find where we are / we have reason to expect an engagement here soon as the enimy is within ten miles of us now now but we may escape it as they are reenforceing every hour. you must excuse my poor writing as I am in a great hury please write soon
 
yours in love
 
Dear Sister pray for me that if we meet no more on earth we may meet in heaven this is the prayer of your [?]
