No inspection. All is quiet in camp. After breakfast,
cleaned up, ready for service in the log chapel. Sermon by our Chaplain. A good
attendance, with several visitors from town. A good sermon on the sad event.
All is quiet, and a very sad day in our camp. All duties suspended for the day.
Went for a walk. Evidence of mourning on many houses and public buildings, by placing
crape on them.
