days since. and it was with pleasure to me to open it & peruse over its
contents. It was with sorrow that I read of the death of Miss Kate Hall
& Miss Sarah McCadden but our loss is thare eternal gain. Miss Kate was my most intimate friend
while I lived in Greenville. I saw a piece in the Newspaper Composed about Miss
Kate I Judged that Mr. Monroe was its auther, it was a
very good piece. Your Brother John has been sick for three or four days
& has gon to the hospital in Winchester. I hope
he may soon recover his former health. I think he is taking the fever. Your
Cousin Abe has been complaining for some time past, but looks harty at present. Brother John has returned from the hospital, he
was sent to Richmond, I was very glad to see him as I could'nt hear from him he had the Typhoid fever & looks
quite thin yet he has not reported for duty yet. I got a pass to go to
Winchester the other day evry thing is very The town is not crowded
like it was in the spring. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
