Thinking of our friends at home, enjoying themselves, and the condition we are in.

The most barbarous country would hardly treat a prisoner thus.

There was a hole under his arm large enough to put your fist in.

Rations two biscuits, half a loaf of corn dodger and two spoonfuls of molasses, for our Christmas present, but I will attend to my box today.

The Richmond papers state that the stench from the prison is endangering the health and the lives of all in the City, and it would be well to remove these "Lincoln hirelings" to where scant fare and cold weather would reduce them in number; consequently we will be removed to Bell Isle.

Havia um buraco embaixo do braço dele grande o suficiente para colocar seu punho dentro.

Rações dois biscoitos, metade de um pão de milho e duas colheres cheias de melaço, pelo nosso presente de natal, mas eu assistirei minha caixa hoje.

Os jornais de Richmond afirmam que o fedor da prisão está pondo em perigo a saúde e a vida de todos na cidade, e seria bom remover esses "mercenários de Lincoln" para onde a escassez de comida e o frio os reduziriam em número; conseqüentemente, seremos removidos para a Ilha Bell.
