Letter from Mary at Continental Hospital in Baltimore, Md., to her father, 1864 January 24
Mary discusses the news that her brother George has died, remarking that he had been cut-down.
She asks her father to come and live in Baltimore, saying that when the war is over and times are good, they will go back to live with him on the farm. F. A. Cummings, who had contracted with the government for supplies, offers a postscript asking Ruebn to come and live with them in Baltimore.
