Washington, April 26.
Mr. Knapp, of the Sanitary Commission, has just been over and offers to take a note for me when he goes to Yorktown to morrow. We like him so much, and shall be in communication with him all summer if we succeed in going down, and we are very likely to go! Mr. Knapp said the Commission had been speaking of us and hoping we might be able to go, and that, if they found women would be allowed, they themselves would be very glad to have us under their charge, and would manage to get us there. We mustn’t call it “our luck.” It is something far better, and I for one shall be truly grateful to God–and the Commission. Mr. Knapp asks as a special favor that we will keep him informed of our movements.
