(CIVIL WAR LETTER)
A Union Sailor Is Eager To Come Home After The Fall Of Richmond
END OF THE CIVIL WAR. ALS. 4pgs. April 20 1865. Deadmans Bay Florida. An autograph letter signed Frank. A Union sailor writes home to his wife towards the end of the war just after the fall of Richmond. He tells her how eager he is to come home and start a new life on land while also mentioning the court martial of his former captain and some troubles with getting money hes owed. Dearest Mary I write this letter to let you know I am in good health and am getting along as well as usual. I left St. Marks on the 16th inst for a short cruise but I do not expect to capture any more prizes at all. As I believe now Richmond is captured the war will soon be finished. I tell you dearest nothing gives me so much pleasure as writing to you it is the next thing to seeing you except getting a letter from you I was disappointed in the last mail as I did not receive any letters from you. However I expect another mail tomorrow and then probably I shall hear from you. I hope dearest Mary you will not feel very bad and blame me because I have not resigned for to tell you the truth I am as anxious to come home as you are to have me come. Still I think it is my duty to wait a little longer and see the last of it. And I am sure you would like to have me do my duty to my country but there is no doubt now but I shall be at home before many months and then dearest what lots of comfort we will take together I am in hopes that when I do come home to find some business that will suit me so that I will not have to go to sea any more for I am tired of it at last myself and I am sure you would rather I would remain at home. I do not think I shall be able to go to Key West after all as most probably all these small vessels like the Fox will soon be sold as the Navy will have no use for them after the war is over. So they will not go to any expense to repair them. I have been employed this last few days painting The Fox My old Captain Baxter is being court martialed at Key West all of his officer reported him to the Admiral for drunkenness I think he will be dismissed from the service and he would be no loss. The Fort Henry has been in Key West these last three weeks and I expect she will be there for a month longer repairing but still I am not sorry. I left her for I never was so dissatisfied in my life as I was on board of her but I have enjoyed myself very much since I left herI still have great trouble to get the remainder of my Prize money. My Paymaster has wrote to the Admiral about it but has received no answer yet but expects to by next mail. He is in hopes to get it for me next month so I shall not be able to send any money home by the Union this time. It is in fine condition with very minor staining in a few places. unknown

WORLD WAR II IN SCOTLAND. ALS. 6pgs. October 5 1940. Drummakill Alexandria Dunbartonshire. An autograph letter signed Hector and written during World War Two. The author discusses hosting evacuated children and the fact that Scotland has so far been lucky in avoiding air raids. Our first lot of 3 boys are no longer with us. One of them the nicest lad died last Xmas from appendicitis the other two took themselves off to a farm as they objected to being kept in order! But lately I hear they returned home to Clydebank. Whether we get others depends on the severity of air raids! So far Scotland has really been lucky in this respect. Of course there are some here & there. We hear the hum sometimes usually at night and have heard bombs exploding but quite a bit away! But you never can tell when it might not be a bigger affair!! It is wonderful how England is standing up to her ordeal & the amazing cheerfulness of people with it all. I have a cousin & her husband in London & she writes now & then saying that life is noisy in London! But she manages to do a lot of war work often taking it to their air raid shelter. But I believe people get used even to the sound of many guns!. Clydebank where the two remaining boys had returned home would suffer a deadly blitz the following year. In fine condition and including the original mailing envelope sent to Chevy Chase Maryland. unknown

My Dear Wife/ It is with a heart somewhat full that I address you at this time but it is not because I have volunteerd sic in the service of my Country and bound for the seat of war but from the fact that money has not been furnished me according to promise that I might leave you in a better situation Capt E.B. Howe has given me 2 Dols that I send you by Mr Johnson as I shall not need it When at Orleans and Mustered under Genl Gaines I trust I shall do at every opportunity I should have called and seen you again but concluded it was best not I sincerely hope that you will not worry yourself but keep good Heart trusting that we will meet again at least one year but probably sooner for it certainly will not take 30.000 men long to make Mexico sue for peace on any terms we are now hauling out into the stream. Now my Dear Martha I sincerely trust that you will be a comfort to your mother by being dutiful and obedient to her during my absence and rest assured that I shall never disgrace the stars and stripes under which I rally in thought word or action believing that our cause is just and that we shall be protected by the God of Battles. Now my pet you must love Mamma by a good girl and kiss her very often for your papa and when you go to school try to learn so fast that you will be able to read my letters. P.S please file all the letters you receive during my absence. Your affectionate Husband Tho.s R. Heritage Sergant Johnson sends his best respects.

(WORLD WAR II IN THE PHILIPPINES)
An American GI Fighting In The Philippines Writes About The Conflict: Weve Had Casualties But One Has To Expect Some Especially When Fighting An Offensive War - The Japs Being Dug In So Well It Was Almost A Superhumanjob To Clear Out Them
WORLD WAR II IN THE PHILIPPINES. ALS. 3pg. 6 x 10 . June 6 1945. Philippine Islands. An autograph letter signed Claude an American GI stationed in the Philippines. He wrote on United States Army stationery to his friend John about fighting the Japanese: Dear John Was sure glad to hear from you again Thanks for writing. A lot has happened since I last wrote - but I won't bore you with very much of them - Have seen quite a bit of action. Mostly fighting n razor back mountains either covered with grass or off on another part of the island covered with jungle - It seemed we moved from one land to another - such a change in terrain - I mean like thick jungles vines & dampness at one place & the other so open one could see for miles and miles - even watch the japs digging in miles away with our binoculars. Weve had casualties but one has to expect some especially when fighting an offensive war - The japs being dug in so well it was almost a superhumanjob to clear out them - Rough going - guess I'm a lucky guy to be in the 60MM Mortar and light Machine Gun platoon - although we were hit some too. Lucky though just wounded were the boys. Well my Platoon Sgt. Went home with a bad ear - got infected someway or other and it really made life miserable for him - so now I'm acting in his compacity - I don't care much for the job but guess I'll have to string along until the end is over which I hope soon. Guess old Nick here was lucky - Had a few close one's too close for comfort. just hope my luck holds on. Guess as far as the point system goes - I'll be in the Army quite awhile yet. Only can figure out 69 points - Quite a jump to dig up 16 more And I've been in this Army 38 months already - Seems like half my life - When I get home I won't know how to act like a civilian - ha - I know one thing I'll have to learn to control my Army slang or else - I'm writing this in our rest area - although we aren't resting as yet - A lot of hard work to build it up & get it in shape first - Havent been her long - but it's a nice area - About like Fort Lewis. Pine trees - cold at night need three blankets still my pups get cold and now that the rainy season has set in it reminds me of Fort Lewis more so as we had so much rain there. Have one camp on a golf course - Been quite some time since I played golf - last tie in the Hawaiian Is. on the isle of Moloka! - More or less pasture. I'd send you a v-mail but as far as I know yet they go straight home with out being photographed and I don't think you'd want that kind. So am using the borderless airmail variety - No two cent overprints have showed up in this area as but if they do I'll remember you - Some of my other friends were asking about them too. Mr. Weltack has been sending me a first day cover now and then and I really appreciate it - as I have no way or time to bother with them. Hope I can continue after the war as I really get a kick out of FD. 's F.Fs F.AM's & all the other better covers. I belonged to the AAMS at one time and have been thinking about joining the MACC in the future. Its been a long time since I saw a good game of baseball- Was in 1939 I guess - In Chicago at the Cub park - The Cubs were playing the Giants at the time. My dad & cousin are great Cub fans but me I like to see a good game - The best men win - I used to play a little too. You know how young guys are - getting up a team & trying to lick the neighboring town teams a log of good clean fun. Well John write when you have time. I enjoy hearing from you. Best of Wishes Sincerely Claude. The letter is in fine condition. unknown

Irene sent one to her Mother she has received an answer to hers. SO I am wondering why I dont hear from you At that time every thing was excitement. All mails from here was stopped and now we have to leave our letters open. Irenes Mother wrote her to come home at once but we thought it was to big a risk to run. We had no idea that they were writing all lies until we got hold of an American paper. War was first declared here on account of the to be next king and his wife were killed by the Serbians. There is such a lot to tell but for fear it will never reach you I will only say the German Kaiser is not to blame. The Germans and Austrian Hungarians have never lost a battle we are not starving and there is nohere. All places of amusement were closed trotting was stopped the first of August. Things are beginning to brighten a bit now but there will be no racing until next year. Every available place is filled with wounded soldiers and we dont see much else but soldiers although there has never been a battle here in Vienna. I am so sorry about Marvin. It seems too bad he had to be taken. I hope you let Eugene and the rest of the folks know about us. We are still in no danger as long as we stay here. I am so sorry I cannot send you some money but it is impossible now. But just as soon as it can be sent will send. Remember me to all the ladies There was a call for linen for the wounded. Irene did two pounds out of my old linen. I thought of you all how busy you would be if you was here there was a ship load of red cross nurses and doctors come over some of them are here in Vienna. There were many Americans went home when your letter went. They were nearly a month on the way. I suppose it cost them a small fortune to go I dont think of any thing else just now. Will write soon again. Trust you are well and all the ladies also. Berdette & Irene sends love Ever your loving sister Libbie Tappan. An interesting first-hand account.
