Head Quarters, Co. “A”, 129th Ills. Vol.
\nGallatin, Tenn., June 27th 1863.<\/p>\n

My dear Wife<\/p>\n

I recd. your letter of Monday last night. ((Mary Culver’s letter of June 22, along with others written between June 22 and Aug. 6, 1863, are missing from the Culver Collection.)) I hope you will give yourself no uneasiness about your trunks. I think they will get through all safe. ((On her return from Gallatin to Pontiac, Mary Culver’s trunks had gone astray.)) I telegraphed to Louisville & Jeffersonville last evening, &, if they are not found there, I will telegraph to Indianapolis & Chicago to-day. ((As the trunks traveled separately, J.F.C. correctly deduced that they had been misdirected at one of the transfer points. Louisville was the terminus of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, while Jeffersonville, Indianapolis, and Chicago were other transfer points on the route by which Mary Culver had returned to Pontiac.)) I will order them forward[ed] by Express when they are found.<\/p>\n

I am glad you have got through safe & hope you may both soon be rested & well. I did not think you would get through your visit so soon, but you will take much pleasure I hope in your trip East. ((Mary Culver planned a trip after a brief rest to New York and Pennsylvania to visit friends and relatives.))<\/p>\n

It has been raining very hard for the past 4 or 5 days, & the ground is very wet. I was detailed to go Scouting again last night but fortunately was relieved. Capt. Hoskins was quite sick the past two days but is much better today.<\/p>\n

I have had no letters since you left except yours. The Post master is about to leave with the mail so I must close. We are all well. Give my love to all. Tell Maggie I think Frank Culver a very good name for her boy. ((The Utleys named the baby Albert Allen. Culver, “Robert Murphy and Some of His Descendants,” p. 99.)) With many kind remembrances for all our friends & the prayer that God may abundantly bless you, I am, as ever,<\/p>\n

Your affect. Husband
