Regiment: 1st Michigan Engineers Battles Mentioned: Historical Figures: William T. Sherman Nashville, Tenn. April 28th 1864 My Dear Ida, I am here to get tools for use on the Fortifications at Stevenson. I expect to leave in twenty minutes and have just time to write a few words. I got my pay as Captain. To the time I was mustered out and enclose seventy dollars to you. Will send you more in a few days. I am well so was Newton when I left. Wish I knew how long I will be at Stevenson and whether it was best for you to come. General Sherman moved to the front today. Action operations soon. Ever Yours, P.V. Fox
