A grand victory for the Union. At last, Mississippi has been captured. Maybe this accursed war will not last much longer. My heart grows heavy every time I must watch a family receive ill news. I had to locate a family with a letter for a young man whom I had given help. When I arrived back his cot had been cleared. He was gone from us. So many lives have been lost. When this war is over, I know I will be able to hear all rejoice across the Union.
