Writes to a friend, based on the content of the letter it is likely Sarah Ogden. Says he was examined by a doctor, who told him that he was not allowed to join his regiment, and sent him to Dr. King's. Tells Ogdon that he is looking for his brother, Michael Faith, and requests that she please check the Broad and Hood Street Hospital for him. States he likes the place where he is staying on 24th and South Street because it has seventy-five beds and an upper ward.
