24 March 1863
Magie, James K., fl. 1862-1863
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Mary Magie
Explains to Mary why her letter will not be forwarded from Philadelphia. Says that he lost track of his numbering and will restart with #1. Mentions that his position as postmaster means that he has no obligations in the Army. He does not have to attend roll call or fight. Two of the six pages consist of a short note on a scrap of small paper from Mary. Asks if it is true that he does not have to fight with the regiment.
