Slept pretty well under the Blanket.
Did not get up until the drum beat the
fall in call. Counted off. At 11 A.M. Drew
our Rations Hard bread (4 1/2) & one Pint
of Rice soup. Quite warm during the day
At 4 P.M. was counted of by the Quarter
Master. Evening cool. I took the dumb
ague at 4 P.M.
Drew a small ration of wood
The "dumb ague" a generic term for chills and fever was the beginning of Springer's fight against typhoid fever.
