This war has had a very chastening influence on the young men

       Received letters from Lewis near Atlanta in the trenches. He was overwhelmed with distress at the death of his brother & says he has been confirmed & joined the Church. Bishop Ley is with the Army, Lewis has for some time been seriously impressed & then wavered before he joined the Church. This war has had a very chastening influence on the young men, and his brothers death no doubt assisted the feeling. I am truly thankful for the mercy.
