Albert W. Barber writes to brother William and sister Malvina, noting that he has not heard from them since they left Nashville. Barber writes that they are not in Decatur, Alabama, and that while they have been on duty in three different places, he likes it better here than in Nashville, although they do have harder work. Barber details that he has been on picket duty and out scouting, and that several days prior a small group of Rebels showed up under a flag of truce and the captains met and talked. Barber further writes that he suspects they will soon be leaving for Catland. He concludes by noting that the Rebels hold Memphis, although they have heard little other news.
