Fragment; possibly a continuation of A00182245. Martha Schofield met Sadie Brouwer in 1859 while teaching at a school in Harrison, New York, and the two remained close friends. She talks about the war and says the Confederates draw closer to Philadelphia every day. She describes the reactions of the people in her area preparing for the war approaching them and says she can look out her window and see soldiers performing drills in the field opposite her house. She has fear for what may happen but is sustained by her faith in God.
