At Camp in South Washington, NC-- Part 2: Spending Time in Goldsboro with Brother Joe

"I was in Goldsboro for three or four days the last of last week and first of this having been sent there by Gen. Cooke to bring down our baggage which we left there.  I saw brother Joe while there.  he is very well.

I wish you would send me a pocket map of North Carolina, if such a thing is to be had in Raleigh, and send it to me by the first opportunity.  I hope that there will be some chance of my getting furlough before very long, as they have commenced granting furloughs again.  I think there is very little chance of a fight in North Carolina now."
