War-date Union soldier's letter, 3pp. 8vo., written by Pvt. Thomas J. Bond, Co. G, 2nd Ohio Vols., "Camp near Chattanooga", [Tenn.], Dec. 30, [1863], in part: "…there is a great many regiments [re] enlisting for 3 years in the veteran service, but I do not think that many of the 2nd OVI will enlist…they will get out of one service first and then we will talk about it. The 38 OVI, 38 Ind. and 9 Michigan started home all veterans. They will not get me in a hurry again…I did not have quit a nice Christmas as I did last year but I had plenty of doughnuts and sweet cakes, but that is all I had…I baked them myself…I would have had something better but eatables is scarce as hen teeth…there was quit a dance just blow our camp last night, but I was not at it…Thomas J. Bond." Some soiling, else VG
