The Right Section of The Chicago Board of Trade Battery In camp near Marietta Ga - June 15th 1864 My Dear Parents Your joint letter of the 4th Inst was received yesterday evening and I need not tell you was exceedingly welcome. I wrote last to Sister Sarah at the time we were laying off near Cartersville. Where we expected to remain for 2 or 3 weeks to recruit our horses but we were soon hurried from there to the extreme front and at present are away in advance of our army. Our battery is divided up among the 3 brigades of our division.
