April the 24 /63 Camp Gregg near Guiney Station, Va. Dear friends A few lines this morning to you to inform you of the changes since my last letter. I am in good health at this time. I have had no sickness since I came to camp, on the contrary I have mended, for it is admitted in the company that I can eat as much mule as any of the company. Today is windy and cold. I was on picket yesterday. It rained all day. Late yesterday evening the news reached camp that the Yankies was crossing the river down at Portroil and had landed 4,000 and had three hundred boats busily engaged in landing. Portroil is 20 miles below this place. I han't much confidence in the report. It is hard to ascertain when there will be a fight here. The future is very misty and hard to fathom. Time and nothing else will develop all things.
Object
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

In this letter of April 24, 1863, G. J. Huntley writes his friends from Camp Gregg near Guiney Station, Virginia. He remembers spring before he was “trampled down by the fetters of a soldier’s life.” He reports on boys he has seen from Rutherford. He had a tooth pulled with 7 pulls. He tells his dad to get into a business that will keep him out of the war. This letter is one of a series of 46 that Huntley wrote home while serving in the 34th Regiment of N. C. Volunteers during the Civil War.
