Garotiot Street Prison
Saturday 13 December 1862
Dear Father and Mother,
I intended to write to you before now, but did not get a good chance I was so unwell. I am now in the hospital with the measles. We are well cared for having clean bunks to lie on1 plenty of covers. I have broken out for 8 days and am doing as well as could be expected. The measles are very dangerous here. I try to pray for myself often... I hope I may get to rest, I am to unwell to write further.
Your affectionate son,
Joseph
