8 December 1861
Miller, Michael Murray, fl. 1861-1864
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Lile Miller
Written at Camp Pierpont to his wife. Fears he will not be able to return home until spring, and longs to see his wife and son. Writes, "...perhaps this delay may save the life of many a soldier for we have seen the effects of attacking the Rebels half prepared at Bull Run and Balls Bluff... our Brigade never moves unless there is a strong force..."
