Sent word to Battese by a convalescent who is being sent to
the large prison, that I am getting well. Would like to see him. Am feeling
better. Good many union men in Savannah. Three hundred sick here, with all
kinds of diseases — gangrene, dropsy, scurvy, typhoid and other fevers,
diarrhea, &c. Good care taken of me. Have medicine often, and gruel. Land
does the writing.
