Very old letter given to me

I just came across an old letter written to what I think is my GG grandmother informing her that her husband was killed while sleeping under a railroad car while serving in the Civil War. It is so fragile and was wondering if anyone knew what I should do with it, get it preserved, does it have any monetary value? (no, I would never sell it)just curious. It was written in 1813.

thank you
