Ward received a letter this morning from a young man at Pilot Knob he is in the 8th Wisc. Regt. his name is John Greenman[John W. Greenman]. he says he was in a battle at Fredericktown. he says that they kill 600 rebles, and their loss was ten killed and 17 wounded. Union force was 3000 and the reble force was 6000 in the field so our side come off victorious as it always will, it makes no difference how many they have or how few we have we are bound to come off best in the end. Our Captain and our Orderly Sargeant Wm Cotton[William Cotton] is going home on a furlough. so I understood to day by Sargean
