Diary of Corporal Alexander G. Downing: Wednesday, August 10, 1864

No news from the front. The sick in my ward are all getting along well, with the exception of two men who are suffering severely with inflammatory rheumatism. Some of the men are returning to the front, while others are going home on furloughs.
