1862 May 28 Fort Albany

[additional postscript to the letter of "Robert" of the 14th Massachusetts Heavy Artillery begun on May 26]

Wednesday Morn 28th

Dont forget to use what money you may receive
from me.  Please use it for yourself and children
and you will very much oblige me,

All quiet on the Potomac, No excitement here,
(although you have plenty of it at  home)
Washington still looking as fair, and as
safe as ever,  Must close now for the
mail starts in fifteen minutes
Yours in love
Robert

MSS 1242
