| Description | Written from Camp Sebastopol.
Anniversary of the battle of Inkerman: although November, weather being beautiful and warm, but with expectation of heavy rain soon: his being busy getting up a stone wall outside their wooden hut, which is lined with felt, except for bits to be lined with canvass, and should be warm for winter: talk about another fight and a Russian attack before winter: roads being nearly finished: getting up a new kind of hutting for the men for the winter: his box being sent by Hayter and Howell on the Imperatrice: not having found out anything about Daly's son: his letter being short. PS: no arrival of mail: request to know whether his name had been put down for the Army and Navy alias the Rag.
