what I have said I don't care a damn for any person. we had a very dry 4th here there was nothing going on at all till night they had a few sky rockets that's about all. Major Phillips treated us to half a barrel of Beer on the 4th but none of us got tight on it. my head feels as if it would burst open [word missing -- paper torn] will write again some other time [Casper? -- paper torn] says he will write when there is any thing to write. write Soon give my respect to all enquireing write soon
