Diary of Private Richard R. Hancock: Monday, October 7, 1861

Our tents, which had been left behind for some cause unknown to me, arrived. glad to see them, for it had been raining almost constantly for the last two days, and as our battalion was camping in a low, flat place, we had mud and water in abundance.

B. A. Hancock (Company E) was appointed assistant commissary in McNairy's Battalion.
