All are healthy. Arrived after a long march at Manchester, which is across the river from Richmond. Will then march to Washington, which should take about eight or ten days. Hopefully will get home by the middle of June. Will write upon arrival in Washington. If they do not leave Manchester until Monday, then he will write again before then. Glad that she is going to see the calves. She must write often. Mail is being collected, so he must finish up writing. "I hope I will soon see you and stay with you." Tells her to send his love to everyone back home. Written in Manchester neighborhood of Richmond
