James Lickly writes to his Brother Barry detailing that he is in good health. Lickly proceeds to explain the duties of a soldier, and notes that he hopes to stay in good health throughout his service. He continues to state he would rather die on the battlefield than have to go to the hospital. Lickly warns Barry against joining the army. The letter to Barry is then concluded, followed by a short letter to their brother Charles. Lickly writes of the occurrences since they were last together and notes that he is now in Kentucky.
