Mattoon Letter : January 4, 1862
The writer of the letter is a sister of Gershom, but it is not certain which one. Based on the signature, it seems that it is likely Mary Amelia Mattoon. She informs Gershom that they have new socks and mittens waiting for him when he returns home. She also indicates that the cash and stamps contained within Gershom's last letter were stolen.
