| dc.description.abstract | In this Civil War letter dated November 23rd, 1862, from Savannah, the author, William W. Knight, acknowledges receiving a letter from his wife, Mary, in which she mentioned sending him a box. He notes that the box hasn't arrived at the depot yet. Lieutenant B. Knight brought clothes sent by Mary through Ben to the camp. William expresses concern about Mary sending salt, as he is surrounded by saltwater and has access to plenty of it. He mentions his desire for Mary to have enough pork and salt for herself and the children. He asks about shoes that Tommy was supposed to make for the children and mentions the possibility of getting them in Savannah. Due to fading light, he plans to send the letter with a correspondence to Mary's father and promises to write again in a few days. | en_US |
