Mace, mother wanted to know how our boots were getting along. They are doing fine. Our clothes are good I must say something about our Lieut. Col. McClain; he is a fine man; the boys think a heap of him; he has a good voice and makes a good commander, he generally drills the battalion. I hope it will not be long before we hear his voice bravely leading us on to victory or death. Mace, I am tired of playing “war.” If we have to fight 1 want to get at it and no joke. Tho I am listening every moment to be called to try our hand. Our troops are still advancing as “Buckner’s Army.” 1 hope we will get

marching orders soon.
