Army letters of Oliver Willcox Norton (Eighty-third Pennsylvania Volunteers)

Camp near Warrenton, Va.,
Monday, Nov. 2, 1863.

Dear Sister L.:—

I got back to camp last Thursday night. Next morning early we marched about six miles and brought up on the Branch railroad, about three miles from Warrenton. I do not as yet know any more of the result of my examination than I wrote you from Washington. My papers have not arrived yet.
