re: Many of Emma's letters have not reached George, and he wonders what happened to them. He wants to get his photograph taken, and appreciates the one she sent to him. He plans to come north for a visit, but his future is uncertain, although he would do anything possible to aid her in any way. He mentions plans to build a hospital for soldiers with relics from the battlefield.
