 Description: Does my chirography look familiar to you? or has it been so long since you had the pleasure of seeing a specimen that you fail? But I have just recieved two darling letters from you dated Nov. 9th & 16th, in both of which you complain of not recieving a letter from “Charley” fortwo-three weeks. I do not wonder that you begin to feel alarmed about him, but calm your fears my love, I am neither dead nor changed, & I am enjoying better health than I have for three weeks past, and am steadily gaining, so that I think there is no immediate danger of my demise nor consignment to the Hospital.— I must apologize for not writing within the past week as I promised to do.— We have changed the Pro Marshal, and with the change came a great deal of work for “us four clerks”, and we have had to keep hard at work from dawn of day until half past ten at night. Thus you see but very little time for letter writing remained for us. Will you not pardon me under the circumstances?
