St. Augustine, Fla
Nov. 29th 1863
Dear Father & Mother:
The only letter I
have received from you since
my return to the seat of war,
came by the “Arago” Nov.
20th Indeed it is the only
letter I have had from N.H.,
altho I have written many,
I have sent you a box of
excelent fruit, to be expressed
in N.Y. for N.H.
Hope you have it.
My health is splended. Thank God.
Have a great deal to do – am
now in command of the company,
I need much grace, grace, grace,
cannot write more now.
Yours in love, A.F.S.
