Short note about camp news. Includes lines about how when the war is over, Eliza and Gustave will come into their own and will be in "the heyday of our life." Reminds her to stay pretty because "…when I do return…then you can make me do as you please. You know how easily I am controlled by a pretty face and I think yours is quite so if you are 30 (almost)." Requests a letter from daughter Ida.
