Members of the Company, Cavalry men and artillery men are considered of too much importance to be detailed from their command for such purposes. Since writing home another member of our company has gone to his long home. S. Dodd who has been lying in the hospital nearly (2) months with the spelled wrong Erysipelas.

   A Chicago man Andrew T. King, who has a brother in our squad is expected in Camp tomorrow.   I hope he will bring as the hats which we sent for by our Lieutenant, it is getting quite warm gown here.   You may not be aware of the fact my Sergeant (Sergeant A. L. Adams, brother to the high school teacher) is home in Chicago recovering from his wound received in the battle. Our Squad thought all the world of him, and mifs him very much.   He lives on the S. West Cir of Ontario and Pine Street
