Captain Charles Russell Lowell to 2nd Lieutenant Henry L. Higginson, December 25, 1861


Camp East Of The Capitol,
Dec. 25, 1861.

My Dear Henry, —  . . . I hear your regiment is nearly ready to start South. I hope you may be ordered here and not to Texas or Canada.

A merry Christmas and happy New Year to you, old fellow.
