He describes the infantry's barracks, artillery leaving for Washington, D.C., the city, and Hudson River. He tells of a court martial, fight in town, and drilling exercise where men left formation when asked \"to form on fours.\" He advises his brother, \"I want you to be a man in every respect, a man that is a Man is the noblest work of God.\"","Cassimere writes how he woke sleeping sentries, but didn't report them, even though a risk to his post. A large balloon passed over camp. A comrade died during the night from measles. \"I have been strutting around camp with a new carbine...\" He tells about the satchel he sent home.","Cassimere writes, \"Eunice talks of enlisting as soon as she gets her regimentals. Do you think she would be accepted...\"  He writes a poem about home and loved ones. He comments, \"... if they would let us we would wipe out every rebel in a short time, but it is not policy to shed any more blood than can be helped.\" They aren't allowed papers to get the news. 20,000 men have been moved over the river. War policy is to not let soldiers know what is happening in the War Department. He discusses camp routine, predicts a battle in New Orleans, and includes a verse written by a bugler on their trip to Washington, D.C.","Note on top of letter: \"Please do not let anyone see this.\" Cassimere writes of his drilling exercises. He was sick and got medicine, but threw it away so he could \"die a natural death.\" A comrade gave him coal and molasses. He describes cooking utensils and cooking in his tent.","Cassimere is stationed near Columbia College while on sentry duty.   He writes of drilling exercises and personal chores, such as blackening his boots.
