Dear Alex, I am so grateful that the Confederates and Yankees surrendered to each other. Now my family can go back to the way things were before the war. Everyone is so excited, except Willie. He thinks the war is fascinating, when he really doesn’t know the pain and grief it causes. Even McLean and Momma are started to become happy again. She knows he is trying his hardest to be his old self again. After General Robert E. Lee and Grant signed the surrender documents to declare the end of the war and make a truce, all these Yankee and Confederate soldiers took our furniture, saying they were pieces of history. Now my living room is completely stripped bare. One soldier even had the nerve to take Lula’s doll for his own child, and she couldn’t get it back. I do not even understand why we had the war. TALK ABOUT WHY THEY HAVE WAR IN THE BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We all, especially Willie, cannot wait for your return home! We want to hear of all the stories you have about the war, and be in your presence, which we have all grown to love and cherish. Take care and keep out of harms way. Your Very Good Friend, Oscie
