What ?? Your question is confusing
The Battle of the Wilderness, fought May 5–7, 1864, was the first battle of Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. ... Both armies suffered heavy casualties, around 5,000 men killed in total, a harbinger of a bloody war of attrition by Grant against Lee's army and, eventually, the Confederate capital, Richmond, Virginia.

It would be too obvious for me to write the entire letter for you, but I'll include a list of points that you could include in your own writing style:
* Thanking Lee for his letter, and saying that you are happy that he is having a good time.
* Telling him roughly what you're studying at school (without being boring).
* Write about what you would like to do when you leave school.
* Finally, say that you miss him a lot and look forward to hearing from him soon.
