Byou Teche, La. Oct. 10, 1863, Dear Mother, This eve I was gladened by seeing two letters from you & Sister the first ones I received since Capt. Lewis came back. I had given up all hopes of hearing from home for some time to come. For now we are on the road for Texas. We are some 130 miles from New Orleans in the prettiest country I ever seen. On Sunday last we left camp at Carrollton and crossed the river Algier then we took the cars and went to Brasher City some 75 to 85 miles from New Orleans.
