A letter from M.G. Hall to his sister Mary. Hall discusses the presences of Black refugees where they are stationed, and the fear of a Confederate invasion through Kansas. Hall also discusses the involvement of the Cherokee in the war, and the liberation of enslaved people from the "Rosses" (possibly the family of Chief John Ross). Hall discusses the health of their family and friends before returning to the situtation at the front, saying that vegetables, tea and coffee, as well as clothes are difficult to come by.
