Messrs. Underwood
and Seeley of the Chicago Board of Trade and Y. M. C. A., arrived from Chicago
today. Visited the rifle pits with them. Battery A, Chicago Light Artillery,
did some firing for them, throwing shells with great precision at the rebel
works. A poor mule was killed at the distance of a mile by a shell.
