Henry Weeks opens this letter with a description of a difficult march that left many of the men in the regiment with sun poisoning. He is, however, encouraged that Federal forces have drove the rebels into their last ditch and does not think they will fight much at Atlanta. Weeks also mentions walking over conquered Rebel fortifications, where he found quite a rich + racy rebel letter ... [and] a rebel Atlanta paper ... completely filled up with lies. He closes with his belief that the war will end within the year and reassures his family that he is doing well, although he is tired of the war.
