The specimens that I got at

Yorktown were a good silver

mounted revolver a boea knife

a lanc and Some confedrate

script that some of the boys

stole from me I got some shells

and other traps also a piece of the

stone where Cornwalice surrendered

his sword to Washington  I have

some military buttons that we

dug up in our trenches that

were buried there in the revolution

I have not been able to find Dwite yet

I guess he has gone to Philadelphia

if he has he will go home as soon as

he is able  I have not heard from

home in two months  I expect

that I did not get the letters

when we were on the advance

You wish to know who I coraspond

with there the beaugle sounds for

drill so I will tell you next time

write soon   Cassimer
