It is now about 1/2 past 5 o'clock and is fast getting dark. We came into camp here about noon and expected to stay here for quite a while, but we have just received [to?] clean up for a seven days march bound for Bowling Green and [so?] we will start at about 5 o'clock tomorrow Saturday morning.

   I might amuse you Sarah for 2 or 3 hours but I havent neither time or light to do so at present.  I must just put in a few [illleg] remarks.  I am enjoying splendid health, and like the service remarkably well, but I find that there are a few artcles that I need which I have not got.  I mentioned some of them in a letter to mother about a week ago sent by Mr. Maple but as she might not receive it I will re-mention them.  I would like mother would get them ready and keep them till I write again.
