at the moment our Brother fell you was penning lines of love and hope to Him Alas that such should be the lot of mortals- Cap Paine is here in town and I saw him He looks fat and hearty can walk without crutches. He wants all of us to be discharged that are in the hospitals. there is a great many of the wounded from Fayetteville here I do not feel like writing much now as it is a dull dark & disagreable day and I feel stupid I am pretty well though and hope to be able to write a more agreeable letter by the next time. I hope you are all well
