Saturday Nov. 19th [1864]

Coughed all Night & did not
sleep a wink. The pain came
back in my Breast. The Med-
ecine run out. Just at dark
It rained some during the
Night. At 7 A.M. it commenced
Raining & Rained until 8 A.M.
it stoped for a while. We drew
Bread a little after 8. Bought
some Sweet Potatoes. Rained
all day. In the Afternoon we
drew Soup. Jim got mine.
Jim Eberhart went out & got
the Doctor to come to the Tent.
He gave me some cough medecine
And a sleeping Powder. The day
was very disagreeable, staid in the
Tent. Retired at 8 P.M.
