� 44 February 20 Camp Franklin, Va.

Have been off alone most of the day, arranging my financial affairs and trying to do something on my "Patent scrap book"

This evening the boys felt exceedingly well. They sang very many of the old songs. The recent victories have accomplished everything towards inspiring and encouraging our men. Even now although the bugler long since played the "Extinguish lights" I hear sweet music coming from the staff line. Some one is singing "Home again! Home again!"
