B), "Office A.A.Q.M. Arty. 11th A. C., Bridgeport, Ala. Mar. 20th 1864," in part: "…if I return and the fortunes of war be such that a draft must take place, they cannot take me as I will have been in the service for (2) two years…My hours are so intensely occupied with the Q.M. Dept. fitting out teams from green mules…About the last of this week I hope remove for Lookout Valley with my train of wagons and supplies…The major is slowly improving & hopes to be able to join us again within the space of (2) two months…" VG.
