Wood, Matthew, fl. 1862-1865
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Sarah Wood
Written from Chattanooga, Tennessee to his wife. Is unsure where he will be sent next. Talks of an acquaintance who went home on furlough for being very ill. Compares weather at home to Tennessee. Compares the winter--without snow--to seasons at home in Ohio, explaining the warm days and cold nights is what gives the men "the shakes."
