Norwich, Connecticut. It is good to be home once more among
friends. Wishing the war was over. I am afraid that many more of the 18th
Regiment must fall before the end comes. Some will never see home again. These
are dark, sad days, but we are trying to enjoy our visit at home, visiting
relations and friends. The cemeteries in the cities and the country show that
many young fellows have given their lives for our country.
