Diary of Private Alexander G. Downing: Sunday, March 13, 1864

The Eleventh and the Fifteenth Iowa, together with the Twelfth Wisconsin, all veterans, went aboard the "Continental" this afternoon and about dark left for the North. I could not go with my regiment, as I have not yet been relieved from guard duty at the roundhouse.
