Diary of 2nd Lieutenant Luman Harris Tenney: August 21, 1863

Soon after breakfast mail came. Letter for me from home. In the afternoon wrote home. Studied some in “Clerk and Tactics,” then read in “Barnaby Rudge.” In the afternoon marched, our regt. in the advance. Went 12 miles and camped, no grass or forage. Bunked with Spencer.
