Ludlow payed me that S10.00 that he owed you he has charge of the Post office in Corinth and I was in there he just handed it to me without my saying a word about it. I havenot sayed anything to him about it since we left St Louis so it came rather unexpected and as I was out of money, very handy. If they commence to draft the 600,000 men this month
