Christmas afternoon in camp near Nashville A.D. 1862

Dear Mother

Tom's and Sarah's letter dated Dec. 6th were both received a couple of days ago.

We have been expecdting to move forward the last few days, and have in fact started a couple of times. Our camp is at present about 4 miles from the front, and we frequently go foraging beyond the federal outposts. Our battery is not brigaded, but is considered as an independant battery under Genl Negley. Consequently we are liable to be rounted out, and ordered to march at any moment. Yesterday morning the grand foraging train's made up of 10 or 15 wagons from Every Regiment.
