          I am very busy as you know
just now looking after the
(interests?) of the Sanitary Com
as the West, for the present
am earning my bread, and
doing something for the cause
of humanity, justice, & the flag
in the war in which we are
engaged. When [?] the
war is over, or the work of
the Sanitary Commission is
at an end, my occupation
will be gone. I must look
ahead then and see what
I can do to put bread in my
Childrens mouths after the war
