Wednesday Nov. 2nd [1864]

When I got up this morning I found
it raining. At 9 A.M. we drew a Ration
of Beef. At 11 A.M. we drew Rice Soup
Rained steady all day a cold
drisling rain. The Tent smoked
so that we could hardly stay in it.
Just at dark we drew Flour
And very mean Flour. Sour & Musty
Dick. Eberhart & I made my Bucket
full of Dumplings. We dried our canvas
and retired.
