 Description: What can be more lovely than this day. warm as the summer days generally are and the more beautiful because it is March.. Can you see me. Charlie sitting here on the root of a maple tree about two feet above the little brook that is south of Auntie's house? Here I have been sitting dreaming and listening to the babbling of the little stream till it sounded like sweet music. and then commenced talking to me of absent loved ones. occasionally looking at the sun that is peeping through the soft haze which envelopes it. until--well something struck me. the thought that I would go to the house and get my writing desk. When I started back.. I caught up Titcombs "Lessons in Life," and here it lies on the mossy bank by my side. Oh! who is not a lover of Nature.. the true mother of all beauty.. Here I can sit and dream for hours. with no companion but the little birds that are even now singing among the not leafy but leafless boughs above my head. And of what am I dreaming. do you ask? Of what could I be dreaming save my Charlie.. It does seem like "fairy land" wonder if I could not see their footprints up on the hill. How I wish I was an artist would not I draw some grand sketches.. Or if you were. but here. I presume I would have you installed immediately.. Oh. Charlie. what is there now to hinder you from coming home. Manassas. Winchester. and all of the prominent places that are in the possession of our troops. I can see no objections why you can not come I do wish to see this must be to those whose friends have gone. What can ever give them strength to bear the great grief but the hope of meeting them in death..

 Description: Do I not deserve - am I not worthy of a letter from my idol? This is not a tear.. I hope my tears are not quite so black as that ugly spot I can see no other reason why I do not recieve a letter. Dear one please tell me in what way I have offended you for I am sure that I have. or you would have written ere this. I have given my letters a review in my thoughts but do not know what I could have written to cause you to not write, unless it was the remark I made respecting your sending me Miss Holcombs letters. Dear Charlie I did not intend to write any thing in that, or any other letter to alienate your affections from me. Darling will you forgive me if I have done wrong? Oh, I can not believe. dearest. that such is the case. Charlie. would that you knew Addies heart you would know that she could not willingly wound your feelings. Two long weeks have fled since I recieved your last. I more like two months. I heard that the "3rd Brigade" had moved but did not learn where it had gone. nevertheless I shall continue directing to the "Valley of Virginia" until recieving instructions to direct in some other direction. I am at home now. I came home friday last. "our folks" were quite anxious for me to come. and I came. Do not wonder, my darling, that I did not feel very desirous about coming. for how could I. but hush! do not allow me to write to you in a discontented tone.

Darling, you do not know how much it relieved my heart. of an almost sinking fear and pain. Although it relieved me of my worst fears, yet it brought painful information that you did not escape unharmed.

 Description: Would you not like to converse a short time with Addie this mor- ning? Perhaps I can not be quiet long enough to write much of a letter. for I heard this morning. that Hallieis over to Auntie's and I wish very much to see him. I do not know whether he will come over home or not. I presume I can be more contented when writing to you than any other way.. I do not feel very contented any way to day. the battle of Pittsburg Landing has occupied my thoughts most of the time since thursday. How frightful! I have been reading the particulars of it this morning. and it causes me to tremble. I would so like to know if you are safe to day dear Charley I feel so lonely and sad to day that all manner of thoughts enter my mind. Perhaps it is wrong but I sometimes wish that you were not in the army. but I feel that it is your duty to be there, therefore I will try and be reconciled. I do not wish to discourage you dear one, but my heart sometimes rebels.

 Description: Who would have thought when I wrote you last that more than a week would elapse before I should write you again. But how fast time does fly. I know you will forgive me darling for you know how little time a teacher gets to write especially where they "board around." I should have written sunday but I attended church both in the daytime and evening and between the meetings I wrote to Hal. I recieved your letter of the 11th and 22nd of April last evening. Laura forwarded them from Mecca Had I not heard from you since then I should be real anxious for you wrote that you was not well, but I can hardly conceal my anxiety now for I have recieved but one letter from you since I commenced my school with the exception of the one I read last eve. You are not ill are you dearest? I feel confident that you would let me know if you were. (I am writing in such a hurry this morning as it is almost school time) I was very thankful for your lettersalthough written so long ago, besides one from Laurie accompaniament there Indecent (how correct that is spelled) Dear Charlie you seem to be quite eloquent in your praises of your "Ohio girl" I do not blame miss Rice for replying to you that I was not pretty, for I too think you must look with a partial eye, for I can trace no expressions of beauty in my ugly phyg. although I — don't try much. I dont see how she could "hate Yankees" after conversing with you, I would not. Yes darling I am proud of it, I mean that I am a Yankee, and if you should ever see her again please tell her "that the Yankee girls" would not only sacrifice home friends, dear friends but even lie to protect their country and their flag. Oh Charlie how I should love to see a regt of ladies armied equipped and ready for battle, but that we must remain at home and donate a little to the "Aid society," every week while our friends and protectors fall and die alone with no friend near. Oh it makes me so indignant. But what could we do? Do! we could fight, fight like patriots as we are, but perhaps you will say you guess our patriotism would cool down by the time we march one or two thousand miles, strong if it unclear!

 Description: Few, very few are the days which I have spent equal to this. I am not happy to day, darling, far from it in fact. I am not well. A violent headache has clinnig to me all day, which added to the oppressiveness of the atmosphere makes me feel miserable.— Oh! what a refreshing breeze has just swept by — and then almost two weeks have passed since I recieved the letter that you wrote last. Dearest why do you not write ofterer would that you know how much happiness your darling letters brought; and how unhappy I feel when so long a time passes without recieving one. Do you hear that music Charlie? Grand isn't it? It is down stairs in the parlor. Who is it do you ask? Libbie Armstrong one of my scholars. (Did I mention that two families live in this house.) She has just played and sang, "Red, White, and Blue". I imagine I can see Charlie, my best and truest friend bearing that glorious flag on to liberty. Go on dear one, the prayers and blessings of Addie attend thee. Listen to those sweet strains another piece she is performing now, How quickly will music draw the heart to its gentle accents. What language is in music. Do you see the great tears which almost throws these lives into obscurity. It is not sorrow that brings them now, but it is the influence of that gentle music. Leibbie is not a good player neither is she a good singer but I am just far enough away to have it sound more like the chanting of angels than like the effect of a human being's voice and hands. I promised in my last to give you my experience in “boarding round” the second night. In my “experience” that I gave you last, I think in fact, I know I gave you the wrong date. It was the 1st and I gave you the 14th did I not? All for the sake of contrast here goes,

 Description: My school room is unoccupied with the exception of one lonely being and how thankful she is to obtain that solitude for which she has all day wished, But is it right for her to be alone? Alone to those torturing thoughts which cling to her sleeping or waking. and which nothing but a letter from that idolized being can drive away? Oh Charlie! My own loved one. if it is in your power. why do you not break the silence between us Three long lingering weeks have passed since last I heard from you and God only know how much longer time will pass before I shall. Are you ill darling and not able to write. If so why not let me know. I could bear that Or - Oh. no I will never write that thought, If I did I should feel every letter sinking into my heart. as if written with a pen of fire, Ah! those tears thank heaven for them,, But they are but few to what I have shed over my dreams. The thoughts while waking are not enough to torture my poor heart but dreams. frightful dreams! Oh I can not think of them, If the cruel monster Death - My God must I write it - has done his work. why do I not know it for then yes then. I might die. Die! Ah. what is death to this fearful suspense. It is nought. And then I might meet my idol, Here again I am thinking that it must be so. just as my dreams picture to me. and not only thinking but writing it, Is this madness? or is it caused by short And yet at times sharp pain around my heart

 Description: If I thought there was so much happiness for me as the probability of soon seeing my loved Charlie I would not write this morning but as every thing generally goes contrary to our wishes and expectations. I doubt not but that such will prove to be the case now. I do not know why I had so anxiously waited and looked for your return, this 4th but as the drowning man catches at a straw. I clung to the little encouragement. Lieut Brisvine gave you. and even now I shudder at the thought of abandoning that hope. There is scarcely a day but that I hear of some soldier coming home to meet his friends, and when I think of Charlie so long absent. I find myself fervently wishing that others were obliged to stay away as long as he. I know it is a cruel wicked wish. but it is perfectly natural for human beings to wish for someone to share their trials as well as their joys or at least to sympathize with them and when I see others so happy because a dear friend has returned from from the wars, I wonder why such happiness is given to some and denied to others. You will call me an "ungrate- ful little minx" as Hallie says. but refer the case to yourself. Look way down in the naughty corners. (If you have such) of your heart and if you do not find just such rebellious thoughts, striving so hard to get the control. then call me a poor judge. But you will say I am arguing both sides will you not?
