Is sending him a package which includes a pair of gloves. If he does not send them home, he will throw them away within a few days of being on the march. "I have not worn them but very little." Received his letter tonight. Captain Robinson is home on a ten day leave. He, Elisha, and Sid are all well. Had marching orders earlier, but they were countermanded. The gloves could be good for weaning calves.
