Diary of 2nd Lieutenant Lemuel A. Abbott: Sunday, March 6, 1864

A beautiful day, no wind and quite warm. General W. H. Morris has had lady visitors form New York City. Our band has been playing for him. There were services to-day in the chapel; several ladies were present; good dress parade this evening; cheering news from Kilpatrick's cavalry.
