Diary of Luman Harris Tenney: Saturday, September 6, 1862

Hugh White cooked for us. Sandy got out of the guardhouse. Hugh cooked first rate. Read and rested. In the evening received a letter from Melissa and a Herald from Uncle Albert announcing the marriage of Sister Minnie and giving an account of the Oberlin Commencement. He commended Will Hudson's “The Heroic Age,” eloquent, earnest, and good. Read a little after “taps.” Two Independents.
