Dear wife
	   As i have a fiew
Leasure moments i will improve
it in writing to you. i am 
well at present and i hope 
when this reaches you it will 
find you enjoying the same
good health. i am on guard 
again to day. but i dont think
that i will have any more guard
duty to do while we stay here. for 
there is orders here now for our
regiment to be mustered out
immediatly. and there is no
guess work about that for i
have seen the order myself.
and some of the muster out
rolls have come to the regiment
to day. i think that before
you get this letter that we will

be on our road home. we
are going to get rid of all
of our horses in a day or two
and then we will have nothing
to do only to get ready to start.
	The boys all of them
acts as if they could hardly wait
for the time to come, this court
martial has broke down on
account of the order coming to
mustre them out and i guess
they will all be released before
we leave here.
	The weather is very
pleasant here now. and has
been for sometime. there has
not been only a fiew nights
that it would freeze ice here.
	As there is nothing of
any importance i will close
for this time. you need not
write again until you hear

    from me. Give my respects
to all no more at present
but remain your loving husband
