Regiment: 2nd Michigan Infantry Battles Mentioned: Historical Figures: Camp Near Arlington September 15/62 Dear Friend I am yet alive. I have delayed writing along while for it has been hard times to do anything so you must excuse me for not writing sooner. Things have been dull since Bull Run we have not had any pay for four months. We have to move very few days we have to do picket duty that is about all. I have seen the boys in the ch, they are in good spirits. I got them letter stamps. I am well as usual excuse this for it is the best I can do Your truly Wheelock Thayer
