two breakes in the levee here which we are repairing, if it is not finished soon we shall have to abandon the place. I cannot understand how it is that I do not get any letters, the mail arrives every two or three days for the Reg. but nothing for me. I heard yesterday that Sam. Mathews died on his way to Memphis. I am a great deal better than when I last wrote. My voise has partialy returned, think I shall be entirely well in a few days. Our Reg. keeps going down by promotion and death. The Adgt. is promoted to Gen. McClennard's Staff. H. Phiney to division Post Master.
