Camp Gregg near Guiney Station, Va. May the 31 /63 Dear friends I drop you a few lines to inform you of my present situation. I am in common health and common only. My health is not as good as it has been. I have wrote two letters home this last week but I am afraid that you won't get them and I will write a few lines more. I want some clothing just as soon as you can get it to me. I want a real nice striped or checked pair of pants if you han't started nary pair and if you have started arry pair you need not mind about sending any more. I want two striped or checked pair of shirts, a pair of drawers and a pair of socks. I want two pants, one pair of socks. I want one pair of real nice calfskin shoes, I want Dobbins to make them high heels and nice every way, narrow bottoms with the toes rather round. No. 8 will do. You know what sort will suit me. I need the shoes very bad. I am nearly barefooted. If George Griffin has started Leander Jolly will be coming soon and maybe Rice Roberson, for I have wrote to him that they wont reserve no more certificates for him. If I can get the shoes soon it will save me from paying out a good deal of money. 1 pair pants, 2 shirts, 2 pair of drawers, a pair of socks, 1 pair of shoes. Remember, I am a Lieutenant. I wrote all the particulars about my election as a Lieutenant. This Sun day is as windy as March. There is nothing new at this time. Every thing quiet. Give me all the news.
