I stayed at home
all day. Father finished sowing his wheat today. John D. Moore with Henry Clark
left this morning for Davenport to go into Camp McClellan—Clark is a veteran of
my company, while John is a recruit for the company. Jason Sparks could not go with
them on account of having the measles. Dr. Clark went to see him and certified
that he was not fit for duty.
