Letter from Sarah E. Andrews to James A. Andrews, February 8, 1865
[to Nashville]

Wednesday Noon

Feb. 8th [1865]

Dear Jimmie,

Mother wrote last night but I did not get time. I'll write just a very few lines now. I have left my dinner unfinished. Father is waiting with his overcoat and hat on to take this to the office so I must hurry.

We have just returned from the funeral of Mr. [H. A.] Humphrey. The house (the Methodist) was full. Mr. Caldwell preached the sermon. I have not felt very well this week, my back has been troubling me. The report was true that Mattie Young was to be married. Her husband's name is Goodrich, I think. No more at present, I will write again this week.

With much love, goodbye.

From Sarah.
