Near Louisville Jan 20th 65
Dear Father

You will please excuse me for my long silence for I have not had an opportunity of sending mail before nor I have not got any only once since we left Columbia There is no news of any importance I expect we are bound for the army of the potomac or Shermans army There is some talk of pay I do not know whether we will or not

If we stop here long enough I shall stop and see James but I think it is doubtful Well I must close for the mail goes out soon Good by write soon and all of the news

H E Randall
