Camp near Harpers Ferrey
Oct 11th 1862
Dear Loide
I received your letter the
day before yesterday. And was pleased to
learn that all were well.
Things with us gou on about the same
every day alike in camp, Except Sundays
when there is no drilling or fatuige duty
except dress parade and inspection.
Jim is fretting that he dont receive
a letter from some of the folks, or [Curico?].
Tell [Tave?] if you please that he has not
received an answer to the last two
he wrote her. What is the reason I dont
get one from [Tave?] [or] some of the rest?
You said not one word in your last
about them, with the exception of Mother,
and did not know wither she was
in Gloucester or not, dont you ever
see them now or not? Mary Ann Parker
I think will wish she had staid at home
she will see some hard sights and
