William H. Bone to Emma J. Bone, undated
Emma I have just had my dinner. perhaps you would like to know what I had. I had beef and potato potato soup. that has got quite fashionable with us. we draw beef four days out of a week. We boil the beef in four gallon kettles and when it gets nearly done we cut / up about half gallon of potatoes and put in it. that is the way we make it. it is not as good as soup I used to eat at home but it is as good in porpotion to our other rations.
 
We expect to be payed in a few days.
no more,
W H Bone.
