Dear Father

H. F. FERRELL is in the hospital with the smallpox. J. W. GREEN is also there with erysipelas.
The detachment of RICHARDSON’S company with us have suffered more than we, losing 7 out of 15 men... I will only give the names of the dead. They are: HAWLEY, HENDERSON, GRAVITT, HINDS, HARRIS, HUDSON, and JARRETT. OSCAR JOHNSON has had a severe attack of erysipelas but is recovering and will be up in day or two. No others seriously sick
