I was out with Carr and Fields hunting up to the old house. Killed four snakes and one squirrel. Saw six grouse and six ducks. A skirmish drill. Beautiful day.

Diary of Private Ephraim Shelby Dodd, Wednesday, April 15, 1863
’Twas misty and damp this morning. I fixed up and went up to Mrs. Tarpley's, bidding the folks goodbye at Mr. Bass's. I found the way pretty easy. Killed a squirrel and took dinner with them. Staid an hour or two and started; came on through Commerce and out two miles to Mr. Davis and staid all night. The mist finally turned to rain.
