1862 November 1 New Bern, N.C.

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

Saturday
Nov 1
Had a good drill this forenoon.  Have
been reading newspapers.  Had a nice box come
from home for which I thank God who has sent it along
safely and enabled me to receive it all right, and may
I always be ready to acknowledge his mercies.
