Henry P. McCahill to Grace D. Nichols, March 23, 1865
Scope and Contents
Written from the Camp of the 182nd New York Regiment, near Petersburg, Virginia. Reports having received her "billy dux" the previous evening but gives credit to "mon cher Francois" for the idea. He writes that Frank is "perfectly 'non compos mentis'" that he has not received a letter from Georgia and asks again for her picture. He sympathizes with her for being ill with a cough and signs off "your 'Sugar Plum.'"
