10 April 1863

Petters, Albert, fl. 1863

Autograph letter signed

Title: to Sarah Ogden

Writes that a severe cold, contracted on the way back from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, delayed him in getting to his regiment. The camp where he is now staying is "a very pleasant place for well men but there is but few ladies here so it is very dull for us at present." While at camp, he ran into some of the men who had been released from the Broad and Cherry Hospital just before his departure. Closes by thanking all of the women from the hospital and giving them his best wishes.
