This is my twenty-second birthday; enemy still in front;
skirmishing still on the left; don't think it amounts to much; heavy
cannonading in front of the Nineteenth Corps from 2 o'clock to 3 o'clock p. m.
Dr. Almon Clark and Lieutenant E. P. Farr returned to the regiment to-day. I
have been busy on clothing rolls and Company books and wrote to James Burnham
this evening; not feeling well to-day; very warm; all's quiet.
