Diary of Private Louis Leon: February 13, 1863

Nothing new. We have been fixing our camps. Our company has built log huts, from two to three feet high, and then put our tents over them-building a chimney to each hut or tent, and we are very comfortable. We got orders to cook two days' rations, and be ready to march in two hours, but did not have to go—in fact, nothing new until the 25th.
