Pa sent Wm for Charity &
much to our surprise, she came home. We were afraid that the
story telling Yankees had smuggled her
off in some way.--------
Pa was anxious to hear the news &
we rode into town for him but
heard nothing--There has been a
fight in Md & it is said we
drove them from the field, but
both lost many--Oh when will
these things end. I feel that by
fighting we can never make that
we must fight.
There are stragglers coming in all the
time. At dinner, supper & breakfast
the table is crowded--
