References receiving his sister's letter of 6 January 1863 on 24 January, while receiving her letter of 7 January on 4 February. Claims they are the only letters he has received from Portsmouth since he left one year and one day ago. Says he received a packet of Salem, Massachusetts newspapers on 1 February. Glad she received the allotment ticket he sent from Cadiz. Wants to know if she received the 50 dollars in treasury notes he sent by registered letter on 4 February 1862 (see GLC02828.01).
