1861 October 27

[From the diary of Eugene M. Cox of the Albemarle Border Guards]

9 P.M. This pleasant Sabbath Day has been spent in peace and quiet--The sun with all the brightness and warmth of a summer's day has warmed, cheered, and enlifened us--forms quite a contrast with many a Sabbath Day sent by us in long and toilsome marches--Genl. Lee is here yet--

MSS 38-221
