Marengo Iowa Jan 14th, 1865 Saturday forenoon Dear Brother Jim I rec'd your letter of Dec 22nd yesterday & was very glad to hear from you again. & to hear that you are well. I earnestly hope that you may continue so, we are all quite well at present I have quite a bad cold in my head but nothing serious I guess.
