here Monday a letter containing $20 00/100 which he promised to deliver safely at the store. If he should neglect to do so, you can find him by inquiring of Wm Meglade for Andrew F. King (the lumber merchant) he is well acquaint with him. We received two months pay ($26.00) last week. Wm Eakins is again in camp, he is nearly well. I havnot met any of my friends outside of the battery since I wrote home, but expect they prosper as usual. Inclosed Mother, you will find a ring, which I made out of a shell from Stone river, and had Charlie Holyland engrave you initials upon it. It will be a good memento of Stone river. Since writing home another member of our battery has been discharged Chas. Le Suer, and I suppose is back to Chicago
