Md. Heights, Sept. 25, 1863.
Dear Mother:
Please find enclosed $100 and forward $45 to Uncle F. from Geo., being four month’s pay. Credit me with $35 and Jerry $20. Practiced with our battery yesterday; fired 12 shots from 30 pdr Parrott. Range was over 3¾| miles. They are splendid pieces. Co. H fired the 100 pdr last week; fired 5 miles, went through a small hill ricochet from there about 3 miles. I look to Rosecrans’ army for great successes.
I remain, Very respectfully yours
L. Bradley, Jr.
