Nashville November 19th 1862 Friend Rutherford, Being “Officer of the Day” and also being compelled to remain up all night, the idea struck me that I would write you a few lines. We are cut off from outside communication. If you was ever “cut off” you can comprehend our situation, and condole with us. I assure you that the feeling is any thing but a pleasant one. For a man to be isolated may be all well enough, but the state of isolation when taken in conjunction with that of hunger is almost beyond human endurance. Hard crackers & old “Ned” (Bacon) are luxuries almost unthought of in our little army here. We are seriously thinking of converting our old boot legs into soup. But we hope for better times. I heard through John Frierson of the death of his mother. I was not surprised to hear of it. She has had enough trials to kill her long ago poor woman. I recd a letter from Ad. to night from our model Sutler [Lom?] I am nearly crazy to see her. I thought perhaps I could through you get a transfer from my present position into the Dept. at Springfield. I resigned and they refused to accept it. I am unwilling <hr /> to tax the benevolence of my friends especially as you had already been so kind to me; but the present situation of things demands my presence nearer home. Any effort for me I assure you would (if I can ever be more your friend than I am) secure my eternal friendship and gratitude, valueless as it is. I have for 18 months served the country as as faithfully as under the circumstances I could.

Extract from the working book of the lodge of the Friends of Perfect Union. Session of the 12th of May, 1865. [Translation.] The members being called to order, the master speaks: <blockquote> “Dear Brothers: An illustrious mason, a great citizen, the very dear brother Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, fell by the pistol of an assassin on the 14th of April last. “A keeper of flocks, a laborer, a woodman, a lawyer, Brother Lincoln grew up to work, a self-made man. “He abolished slavery. Honor to the memory of that good man who has been of such signal service to the cause of humanity. “Let us give, then, a triple battery of mourning to the memory of our very illustrious brother, Abraham Lincoln.” </blockquote> Brother Vallarino then sang an anthem, composed by Brother Mercadier, and set to music by Brother Coll, a member of the lodge Brother Mercadier then speaks: <blockquote> “May the song you have just heard bear beyond the ocean the expression of our profound regrets. May our affliction, mingled with that of the world, temper the sorrow of the widow and children of the great citizen who has given his life for liberty. “In destroying the last vestiges of slavery, he finished the task begun more than eighteen hundred years ago, by the Just Man, who was crucified for wishing to free the human race. “Lincoln’s was a great mission upon this earth, and he has most nobly fulfilled it. May he live forever in all hearts! May his noble figure beam in the future and serve as a beacon to all friends of humanity. “Let us then, my brethren, give a triple salute of joy, in honor of the great, firm, glorious, and immortal Abraham Lincoln!” </blockquote> It was unanimously decided that the banner of the lodge should be veiled in a mourning of crape for seven days: and that an extract of the minutes of this session should be sent to the Grand Lodge of the State of New York, with the request to have it sent to the widow of the very illustrious brother, Abraham Lincoln.

[Translation.] Madam: Some misfortunes are irreparable, and for which there is no consolation; these have fallen to your lot, and the world deplores it. These are not then vain efforts of comfort we extend to you, but simply the humble tribute of the profound regrets that weigh down our hearts. If the pure and holy life of your great husband made him the favorite of a great nation, his death has rendered him immortal. The liberator of slaves had to be a martyr! Was not the Nazarene crucified? Lincoln is now surrounded by a halo of glory that ages can never efface; his name will be forever blessed. Be resigned, madam, to the inscrutable decrees of Providence, who needed a great soul to accomplish its designs, and fixed upon the man most suited to its purpose. We remain, madam, with the most profound respect, your very devoted servants. The officers of the lodge: BOURGUET, the Venerable. D. RAYNAL, 1st Warden. A. ROLLAND, 2d Warden. A. THERODEE, Orator. C.

Friends of the U-nion we greet you to night, True to the land we love; True to our Country and Lib-er-ty's right, True to our flag a-bove, Long may that Flag O'er Fort and crag, On the land on the sea, Float o'er the Brave and Free.

We're coming, Father Abram, nine hundred thousand strong, With nine hundred thousand darkies, sure the traitors can't last long, with Corporal Cuff, and Sergeant Pomp, to lead us in the melee, And at their head, without a red, Our Brigadier General Greely. Chorus. With our promise to pay, How are you "Greely's subscription list" Promise to pay--"nip up de dooden doo." 7.
