Letter from Charles E. Jackson to Thomas W. Jackson
Description:
Camp has improved some, but in December he saw some of the worst sights he has ever seen. Did not receive the promotion, but has a major pulling for him. Heard Mr. Higgins had inquired after him and says there might be a chance with his daughter "although she is a little fat. Could stand for that so long as there is Bocoo money attached to it. Do you compre Bocoo that means lots, some French." Likes army life, but wants to get out of the hell hole he is in.
