Dear Friends
Your letter was received but a few hours since & it afforded me great pleasure to hear from you [unclear: I] will most cheerfully afford you any [unclear: assistance] in my power providing military authority does not object
I enclose a draft of $10.00 (five for each) on Philadelphia bank which you can get cashed. I hope this small amount may be of service to you. I will also make up a box of some little comforts & send you, if you will inform me if it will be allowable.
We heard that a cousin of Mr Miller's a Mr Ott, of Woodstock, was also at the Fort. Would be
glad to hear from him also. Write me immediately on reception of this

Any thing will be of interest in the way of news from my old home
Do not hesitate in making known to me what your wants are
Very truly your friend
AVL Miller
