Whitney and I guy him.
To-day a sentry on post was reading "As You Like It" and whenever I go down the line half the men want to know who won the boat race-- To-day Wood sent me out with a detail on a pretense of scouting but really to give them a chance to see the country.

They were all college boys, with Willie Tiffany as sergeant and we had a fine time and could see the Spanish sentries quite plainly without a glass.

I hope you will not worry over this long separation.

I don't know of any experience I have had which has done me so much good, and being with such a fine lot of fellows is a great pleasure.

The scenery is very beautiful when it is not raining.
