Diary of 2nd Lieutenant Lemuel A. Abbott: Saturday, February 20, 1864


A very pleasant day but not warm. The men have been playing ball this afternoon; very dull otherwise; paymaster has come; have been very busy having men sign pay rolls. There is a detail for picket tomorrow, but I am not going.
