Diary of Private Daniel L. Ambrose: Saturday, June 14, 1862

To-day we remain in camp; everything seems quiet, the boys look cheerful.

Close by, in a winding ravine gushes a stream of sparkling water, which God, the Eternal, brews for all his children. It is beautiful, and the boys in blue kneel often there.
