Head Quarters 10th VtApril 29th 1864My Darling wife

Page 1

I recd your letter written last Sunday, to night, and it is the first one I have recd. for several days. I hear that all letters from the Army have been stoped in Washington for a few days, and will continue for a few days longer or until we move which I think will be about next Monday – so you need not be suprised if the letters should be a little old – you will get them all eventually when they will be just as good. I shall write every opportunity I have to send after we commence the march. I did receive your letter with the stamps, but must have forgot to write you about it. All goes on very quietly in

the regiment since the Col left with the exception of a little breeze the Major tried to get up with some of the line officers, against Capt Frost, and in favor of Captain Dill. but I think I have taken measures to head them off. And if they do not look sharp I will have Capt Frost and Capt. Dill. to for I shall not stand much fooling. I wrote to Mr Dillingham about it. I will write you all about it as soon as I learn how it is.

I am detailed as “Div officer of the day” for tomorrow, (Saturday,) and shall come in Sunday when I will write you a good long “Sunday letter”

My blessed darling one
good night As ever William
