Letter from A. F. Hicks to Dr. Joseph Pound, Surgeon General 3rd Brigade discussing the news that some of their former officers have "offered their services to the government" and that he is preparing his department so that if his brigade were called up "we would be ready for Service in a short time."

He was happy to receive her letter and had started to respond earlier, but was interrupted. He thinks the letter must have been delayed and that is why it took so long to get.

Lorena saw Jett who also hadn't heard from Linnet. She talks about teaching and hearing a sermon. She received a letter from Melvin and Carter. She plans to see her in June.
