Dear Salley and Billy,
I miss you all so much and everyone in Philadelphia. I have been enlisted and am a captain for the unionists. I really want the war to end soon and for the country to unite again. This country can’t do anything if we aren’t united. It reminds me of when the thirteen colonies decided they wanted to be there own country only we don’t have a tyrant king. Everyone at the camp is getting along well and I have seen some places I have never seen before.
Dearest regards,
Alfred A. Scales
