[from the diary of Francis G. Hale of the 34th Ohio Zouaves\
I did not feel very well
this morning but soone
got over it I came near
having to go on guard
for not being on roll
call but I did not
there was a a part of boys
went out on a scout
they was about 18 miles
from camp there was two
virginians along the
camped in 2 1/2 miles from
one fellows home he started
to go hom had got near
there whe[n] a bushwhacker
shot him in the mouth
and killed him dead
they buried him there
it rained today a lot
