[from the diary of Jesse Calvin Spaulding, Co. F, 25th Massachusetts Infantry]

Saturday
March 22
Got off guard about eleven. Did not
get any breakfast. Help spread out
tents after dinner and then drilled a
little. Wrote to Jennie this evening. Have
felt cross and rather sad but I know
that God is the same kind father
and will take care of those who trust in Him.
