G.M. ELLIOTT, M.D. BRUNSWICK, MAINE

on the train I sez to myself sez I "Ye grate big fat stiff, wjer doin along uv us?" And when I saw him in action, I sez sez I, "Sorry ruity! Hev I struck a whirlwind?" He'd fair there a mighty good go around, and I'm sure would keep. And [underlined] he'd be pleased as punch to hear you write and asked him. I dubbed him my "Senator". "Senator to Major Elliott" he signed himself, proud as a pea ["hen" struck out] cock. I forgot pea hens don't have no tales to spread. And he sure did a cob of getting down at the bottom of things while he was there.

I'll write to "Addie" Sunday if I hear a line from you before then.

I'm back in the harness, tho' so far I get shed at 10.30 or Eleven stead of 12:30 or 1:00 But I've been driving a cob, and Six had there babies since I got back, and only cost one of those there that ought to have came when I was away.

We've got about 60 men mustered or ready to muster, expect 10 from Lisbon Falls to- morrow afternoon. Luv, Ol Dok Elyot
