My dear Friend

Once more "smiling on my back" I greet you. My third day's duty in the comp. sends me here with slight wound. Two hours ago some of my rebel friends sent a minnie ball through the fleshy part of my thigh- it is only severe and painful; not dangerous. I was able to walk from the field. Do not fear for me: I was on duty and this leaves me no fear for the result, be what it may.

My bed is the ground, my shelter the Canopy: but my pillow is softened by a clear conscience, I shall most likely be in Vt in a weeks time

Even as ever Yours
