Dear Charlotte
I will write you a fiew lines to inform you that I am well and that I received two of your letters. I was glad to hear from you and that you got the money I sent from Raleigh. We wont have to write but little more. You nead not write again till you hear from me. I think we will start home next weak. If we do I wont get your letters if you write. I see Isac West day before yesterday. He is well. The 109th are about ready to go home. I think we will be discharged and payed off here. You may look for me about the midel of June. If we have good luck we will be there by that time. If we are not likely to get started soon I will write and let you know and then you can write again but I guess we will soon start for old York State. How glad I am. I feel as though I was going to be let out of prison. We had a geat review. I will tell you all about it when I get home. I havent seen Rast yet. His regt lay at the navy yard. Calvin West is in the 207 Pa. He is a one year man. He is in the 3rd Div of the 9 corps. I would like to see him. He is married. He was married about two weaks before he enlisted Isac West told me. You stated in one of your letters that Labon Browns wife was dead. That is sad news for Labon. He has gone home on furlough. I must close for this time. I will hurry home. Good buy.
