Creek upon which Old Fort Cobb is located. We have obtained a stove for the Mess Tent, and are much more comfortable than when we first pitched our tents on higher ground upon our arrival here the 19th [?inst] I am writing this on leaf of the Mess chest which we use also as field desk. Alvard is now writing at the other end of the table. Woodward is sitting by the stove smoking a cigar and I have one the last of the box laying before me ready to be lit when this is written. We are all gay as larks can be in wintertime in the Wilderness. Will most likely spend our Christmas and New Year at this point. Wishing you all a merry joyful time during the holidays and forever after I remain Dear Alice ever faithfully and Affectionately Yours B. H. Grierson
