Well, I have come to the end of my paper and ideas, and there is nothing left but to send my love to all the girls and a large share to yourself. Good bye, Your loving cousin, D. P. Dewey. Transport St. Mary, April 11th. 10 P. M. Dear Mother: Again we are crowded, jammed, jostled and suffo- cated on one of Uncle Sam's transports. For the last three hours I have tossed and turned and suffered and thought wicked, if I did not say it. In the top berth in a close state room, breathing air second ha...nd from the lungs of a crowded cabin. I have given it up and am beaten, and can not sleep, so I have retired to the depths of a lower cabin and on the dining table by the light of an oil lamp I am writing to you. I am wet to the skin with perspiration. Fine condition I shall be in for the fight we are going to have to-mor- row. It is abominable the way they cram these trans- ports. The St. Mary is a fine large steamship, but just imagine it; there are four regiments squeezed into her besides a battery of artillery and from fifty to a hundred horses.
