[from the diary of Jesse Calvin Spaulding,Co. F, 25th Massachusetts]
Went ashore this morning and
went up to camp. Found that
Charles Maynard was dead. Got my pay
up to the first of Jan. I ate dinner up
there and then came back down to the yard
where I got three letters and a paper
and a bundle of cake. Saw Frank Gill
and George Crane[?]. Bought a pair of
boots in the city. Came back to the
boat about three. Wrote a letter home
this evening in which I sent my picture
and fifteen dollars. Snowed a little to-day.
Franklin Gill, Private in Co. F
Charles H. Maynard, Private in Co. F.
