Carrington Family Papers (VHS mss1c2358h); William A. Carrington AL to “My dear Adeline”

197 Main St. July 9th [1862]

My dear Adeline,

...My hand is much better, almost well - I am surgeon of Dooley’s & Richardson’s Hospital on Main Street. Work hard to understand the routine of the quartermaster, Commissary Purveyor & other departments. I will learn it all after a while I suppose.

[remainder of letter goes on about family matters and was not transcribed]
