I really pitied them while under command of Nordstrom.

I cannot bear that man at all, he is a much greater disgrace to the regiment than Spencer, and always will be, tho' both ought to be got rid of. And Doyle will certainly be no loss. I really wish you would enquire about one thing for me in connection with Nordstrom. When I left Co. "M". I had among my chests a carbine box painted blue, rope handles- It was nearly full of school books, readers, spellers, arithmetic slate, pencils, pens to copy books, over $60. worth in all.
