Corinth. To-day we
were told the sad news of the death of one of our number, John Haskins, who
died during the night of chronic diarrhea. We had an inspection at 9 A. M. and
in the afternoon we paid the last tribute of respect which one man can pay to another,
to the remains of our comrade, Haskins. He was buried by the side of the brave
five that fell in the battle of Corinth.
