Diary of Judith Brockenbrough McGuire: April 27, 1864

Another day and night have passed, and nothing of importance has occurred to the country. We are expecting movements in every direction. O God! direct our leaders!

Our daughter M.[1] is with us, quite sick; her husband[2] has just arrived from North Carolina, where he is attached to General Whiting's command.
