Corporal Titus Moss Letters, September 1862 – March 1863 Page 18
left so sudden I did not change my cloths. I expected chang the
first of the week when I would get a chance to wash I beleave
every one was in the same fix. Sunday is the day a great many take
for washing but I shall try to find time some other day. The
greatest trouble is water there is no brook I can get into and no tub
that I kind of but think I can get a pail of the cook. Please give me
an account of every thing. Little things that you think are not worth
written I should read with the greatest pleasure. How much did the
heifer weigh. How does Bill look, and how all the work goes on. I
was very sorry to that you were not well and wish you to be very
careful and try to get cured. If you would keep a sort of journal and
write a little every night or when you have time it would be very
interesting to me.
From your affectionate Guardian
Titus Moss
This is a post script that he wrote on top of the first page.
I forgot to name any place and I think it is the b-day of the month.
We are near Harpers Ferry I think it best to direct letters to
Washington then they will come to our reg where ever it is.
