<strong>Corporal</strong> <strong>Titus</strong> <strong>Moss</strong> <strong>Letters</strong>, September 1862 – March 1863 Page 75<br />

Camp Near Stafford Courthouse Jan 26 th<br />

My Dear Wife<br />

I have enclosed a letter to Father in an envelope<br />

directed to you that will tell where we were yesterday. We came in<br />

this camp last night and found a letter from Samuel. It seems by<br />

that he does not know where Frank is. I hope I shall hear from him<br />

soon. Martin had a letter from Dr. Driggs saying that Mrs. Beadle<br />

was coming to Washington to take care her son and that Julius was<br />

coming to see about Samuel. I haven’t any doubt about his getting<br />

his discharge if it is ma- nagged right but how that is is more than I<br />

know. Our doctors here would not do any thing about it. I have<br />

only a few minutes this morning but will send another to you by<br />

tomorrow’s mail if we stay in this camp to day. I had a letter from<br />

Lauren night also and read it put it in my pocket and lost it. I was<br />

not much supprised to<br />

2. hear from Mr. Pierpont. Carrie mentioned it in her letter. I am as<br />

well as usual and hope this will find you and family and all friends<br />

well also. Inever think to say any thing about my watch but it has<br />

proved itself an excellewnt time keeper. Give my love to all friends<br />

Uncle Lloyd in particular. Sister Hannah, Grandma Humiston and<br />

all.<br />

From your loving Husband<br />
