1862 April 19

[from the diary of Jesse Calvin Spaulding of Co. F, 25th Massachusetts]
<u>Saturday
April 19</u>

Got a letter this morning, also a paper
both from home,  Have felt very well to-day
Went in and washed this afternoon.  Played
chess with Charles Upton, read newspaper &c
Feel that God has blessed me greatly.  May
He keep me from sin, and deliver me from
evil and keep my parents and friends for
Jesus' sake.
