<html>Having been entrusted by Sti: Bet: with
forwarding of her letter, I consider my
self entitled to slip a small note in for my own
benefit just to let you know how very much
you were missed by us. (I allude to all the
gentlemen & myself particularly) on Christmas
and to pay a just tribute to our noble &
[generous?] friends. – but words can not do
justice to the kindest & noblest hospitality
that ever was shown, and we can only feel
that we are unworthy of such attention!
Now I'm inclined to scold you a little
bit, for having disappointed us so in
not coming home – but in consideration
of your good nature, [?] disposition &
ten thousand other charms, ever more
potent than those mentioned, I will only
say, we will pardon you if you will
only promise to come back very soon,
which condition is held [?]
Does not my Commanding General feel
that she has deserted her Colors? I
really feel as if my military glory had
all departed. Please come soon &
[return?] it! - Dont let Sti Bet: scold me
for this liberty! Yrs &c J S. Capers.
