5 We are all done housecleaning & got a lounge covered with red calico, & a new cover on the stand & the carpet turned over, cooking-stove out & every thing looks as though it was waiting for you to come & admire it. Our home never looked so beautiful as it does this spring. How I do wish you were here to enjoy it with me. May be you soon will be, I think the war will soon be over in the west, then for home say you. Next Monday morning I commence studying. I will get up at four & study until six. We go to bed at nine, I shall bathe & be as fat as a pig against you come home, Wont you be glad though? O darling how I do wish the battle at Corinth was over
