It has been a
lovely day. Some of the time it's been really uncomfortable, the sun has been
so warm. About 1 a. m. last night when making the rounds considerable firing
was heard towards the right of the line. It was probably deserters trying to
come into our lines. Sergeant Daniel Foster came to the picket line this
afternoon to get some money to send Corporal C. B. Lee's remains to Vermont who
died last evening. Banty has come with some rations. Lieut. Ezra Stetson
arrived in camp Sunday evening.
