[From the diary of Daniel D. Logan, brother of General Thomas M. Logan, and Sgt. i nCo. B, 1st Special Battalion (Rightor's) Louisiana Infantry]
Raining all day until 4 o’c when
we had battalion Drill – Spend the day
in the Den reading – Rec’d three letters
today, from Mrs Roy, Norvell, & John
Didlake – the former acknowledging receipt
of letters sent (6) & the letter complaining
terribly of my not writing – Wrote him
a long letter tonight - & mailed Mrs Roys
for Kate & Mag. to read – as my latest
news from Norvell – No papers or mail from
Richmond today -
[John Lascelles Nowell Logan, 1838-1924, step-uncle of diarist]
[probably Katherine McNeil Logan, 1839-1927 and Margaret Anne Logan, 1840-1919,sisters of JLN Logan.]
