I received yours of Feb 27th
the day before yesterday but had not
time to answer it before. and I have since
expected another from you if you wrote
Sunday as you expected, but it has not come
but instead of one from you I received one from
Amanda writen the same day yours was.
We drill twice a day now and are enspect
ed or reveiwd once or twice a week so you
see our time is prety well taken up. but
I'll mange to find enough to answer
all the letters that reach me if you will
onely write I got a Bay State from you the
other day makeing the second lateraly.
The weather is about the same as it was when
I last wrote though prehaps a trifel warmer.
yesterday was a beautiful day and to day
we have a rain storm consequently no
