<p>Woodburn Aug 14th 1865 Dear Son I take this spatered Sheet of paper to write a few lines to you not that I think it will do as well as any other but because it corresponds more with my feeling than one clear and white I am at such a loss to conjecture what is the reason you do not write or rather why it is that I do not hear from you it must be five or six weeks since I got a letter from you I wrote one last week and one week before and have written regular but no answers come I do not know where to direct to. I do not see by the papers as the Army
