NASHVILLE, December 24, 1866.
DEAR UNCLE:— Good times, banquets, etc., etc., at Knoxville, Chattanooga, and here. We visit the battle-fields and mix with the leading Rebels in a friendly and sensible way. We go to Memphis tonight. Stay all day Christmas and go to New Orleans.
Lucy is doing her best and enjoying it hugely.—Love to boys.
