Nov. 1st, '62
Moved at about 5
A.M. this morn-
ing; passed through
Glasgow, which is
a town about the
size of Barnesville,
Ohio, and encamped
about a mile this
side, at 9 A.M.
The fact that we
are engaged in
making out our
pay-rolls, accounts
for our stopping
so early in the
day. Rolls are to
be made out every
sixty day[s], but not
always paid then.

Oct. 27th '62
Very cold last night.
Having no blankets,
I sleep very little at
night, & marching rap-
idly all day, under
such circumstances,
is not very pleasant.
Clear & cold this morn-
ing. Over 300 men
in our reg't unfit
for duty.
