Diary of 2nd Lieutenant Lemuel A. Abbott: Tuesday, March 15, 1864

Cold but pleasant; no wind; four hours' drill today, but I was excused being so busy at the chapel. I forgot to mention that Captain J. A. Sheldon returned from Vermont last night where he has been on recruiting service since November. The Third Corps is to be reviewed to-morrow by Major-General French.
