1862 November 24 New Bern, N.C.

[from the diary of Jesse Calvin Spaulding, Co. F., 25th Massachusetts]

Monday
Nov 24
Had a company drill this forenoon
and then we went out nearly to the
river target shooting.  I fired three times and
hit the board every time below the mark
This afternoon Phineas made some doughnuts and
John and I bought some for supper.  George and
I played a couple of games of chess this eve-
ning.  It has been a nice day.
