Writes to his wife whom he refers to as his "partner in life," that he is well and has received her letter. Reports that he has been standing guard and expects to stay put for the winter. Tells her they have fixed up their winter quarters and now have a little iron stove, which "makes it comfortable these cold nights." Explains that there were not enough men in the "I" company, so all the soldiers were transferred into different companies. Asks her to make an inquiry about some folks named Amner the next time she writes. Letter is addressed to Masonville in Delaware County, New York.
