1861 November 25

[from the diary of Francis G. Hale, 34th Ohio Zouaves]

this morning is very
cold and the snow is
falling a little now and
then we expect it will
snow to day the ground
is frozen and it will
lay on now I am on
guard a gain to day
to day is my regular day
I am in Regimental guard
at head quarters it still
keeps cold and snowey we
are going to leave here
soone but I do not know
where we will go but
hope it will be to
some good place to
keepe warm and
dry for we have had
it bad enough now
