Written from Camp W. Scott. Explains to his wife that he does not know where he is going. Comments that he will go to the Senate and House of Representatives, both of which are in session. Also states that he will see her uncle. Tells his wife that he will be able to send her a little money; but the army owes him two months pay. Is glad to hear that his sister, Wink, is happily married and in her new house. Asks in post script if she is "in a family way."
