Diary of Private Daniel L. Ambrose: Saturday, October 24, 1863

This morning our detachment leaves Chewalla with their camp and garrison equipage for Corinth. We again go into our old quarters, which we now denominate our "old homestead." The arrival and moving of troops seem to instil new life into Corinth. The indications are that some aggressive movement is contemplated.
