Diary of Corporal David L. Day: April 10, 1863

 NEWS FROM ALONG THE LINE.

The siege of Washington on the Pamlico river continues, and heavy tiring is heard from there every day. We learn they have got Gen. Foster shut up there and he is in danger of being made prisoner. That may be, but I will bet ten to one he holds the keys and will never take off his cap to any general in the Confederate service.
