An unknown soldier writes to his friend from a hospital in Louisville, Kentucky. He notes that he has been delayed in writing because of his sickness, and details that when you are a soldier your health is worth everything. The soldier continues to note that he cannot leave the hospital until he is fit for duty, although he would love to be with the boys again. The soldier continues by detailing the beautiful spring, describing the plants in bloom and how much he longs to enjoy the season. He concludes by noting that he received a letter from Albert detailing that the boys are now in Tennessee.
