1862 August 2 Camp at Green Meadows, Va.


[from the diary of James Dinsmore Templeton, musician and private in the 23rd Ohio]

Saturday, Aug. 2, 1862

Guard mounting
after which we practiced
parade & drill
Bathed & changed shirt
this evening
Thad quite sick this
day
Went out to the Orchard
beyond the hill to get
some apples for sauce
Mostly clear
