of Spring watter clear as cristal with hills on either side from 100 to 200 ft high. We are on the east side about a hundred feet up. The Adjutant S. just passed us and asked if we were writing to our sweethearts, he is a very fine man. Wel this is not as it used to be at home on Sabbath morning here we hear the fife and drums when cauling each other and making all the noise they can and the loud voice of the centinal cauling the guard. Hen has finished his writing so I wil come to a close by wishing you a pleasant and happy sabbath. Yours as ever Jas Patterson
