Got their letter Tuesday morning. Hopes his arm will stop running soon. Got a letter from Ed Bridgman on Saturday. The regiment had just returned from another raid. It is a shame how much marching the troops have to do. Met Mrs. Whitney, the mother of a man in his company. Did not have much news to give her, but will see her again as soon as possible. Will write to Bridgman today. Written at Dale General Hospital
