in no way shape or manner. It panes me to see men make hogs of them
selves by getting drunk and God nowes I have seen anuff of it sence
I have been in the army. We spent a very nice New Years in camp
everything passing off well with out eny assident. The day was one of the
beauterfulles I ever witnessed.  You say it panes you to see so much differ-
ance in the opinion of people in regardes to this rebellien. You say they are
all most all in faver of the south in the place where you live.
Dear Ma, I do not believe thear is a man living in this once prosperous
country can make me believe the southern people did wright in fireing
on and allmost starved handfull of men in Charleston Harber and
thear trayling the enblem of liberty in the dust which has gave succer
to men from every clime allmost on the face of God's earth and thear is
no argument string enuf in my estermatun can be brought in thear favor
but will brand that act as unyoman cruell and cowardly. Tis true
thear is men will argue that the south has been imposed upon by
men of John Brown stripe but was not he cendemed by most every man
in the northern states? But Ma I hope they that are erposing Abre-
ham Lincolns adminestration will have the vale pulled off of thear eyes
for I can not see eny thing rong with him as a ruler for I beleave him
to be one of the best men the country can produce. You must excuse
the blotes on this paper for I have no good place to right.
Hoping this will do for an answer to your letter and hoping it
will find you in the enjoyment of good health as it leaves.
I will close by sending my best wishes and regards to all
of you. -----------      Yet I remain your son

P.S  I thank you for the two sheats of paper
that you sent me.
Write soon.
   Direct as before to me
      So good night
