page_0001_____ [?] Feb. 12th 1862. Sawney, dear, your letter to me of the 6th inst- written with a pencil, came to hand Monday night. It came thro in a shorter time than my letter has done from you in a long time. We were glad to hear your very well enjoying such good health, and we hope & pray that this inestimable blessing may be continued to you until your term of service expires. Good order & good health are desirable in every place - but I should think more to be desired in camp than most any where else. "Aminadab" in his fast letter gave a minute description of your Reg. hospital & guard house. He had been in both, found them not very pleasant places, particularly the hospital, said he was writing from the guard house, to which he had been sent for some misdemeanor. He was orderly Sergeant of His Chatham Rifles," but had been redressed to ranks [?]. Bro. J. says he deserves to be punished, if for nothing else, for his want of patriotism which is conspicuous in nearly every letter. To gratify our curiosity, do give us his true name. | page_0001_____ [?] Feb. 12th 1862. Sawney, dear, your letter to me of the 6th inst- written with a pencil, came to hand Monday night.
