Writes to his father about guard duty and thinks that the worst part is how it disrupts sleep. Wishes he had more newspapers to read, although he is "very much obliged to you for sending me a box, whether it ever reaches me or not. I am much obliged to Johnny [his brother] for sending me such a large proportion of his apples..." Comments that "Theodore [his brother] had better stay in Phil. as long as he can, and never mind whether he is reduced or not so long as he is not reduced for misconduct." Letter written in graphite.
