My dear Susanna —
We were all elated the other day to get that Boston paper not only because it relieved our minds about Edward but to find that he had so greatly distinguished himself & that without being wounded. Surely he will be decorated since the facts are known. Of course many a soldier richly deserves decoration & because nobody — I mean impersive officer sees what he does nothing comes of it. His C.O. can hardly have failed to report him!
