Edwin Jackson wishes Bill a happy New Year and talks about how happy and hopeful he is. He remarks that, after his last seven months are up, he will be proud to have been in the army and will be able to look at the cowardly Copperheads with contempt. He writes about how awful Helena was and how his regiment would have preferred to have been on the Potomac. He mentions letters from home and from the Thorns.
