Description
An account of the resource
Babcock's Civil War diary begins near Washington, D.C., where his company had been since June 1863. While at Fort Carroll, his entries largely contain descriptions of his duties in camp (drills and guard, police, or orderly duties), as well as rare sight-seeing trips in the city. He occasionally mentions his meals, recording one day in March where he had roast turkey for dinner--several of his friends caught seven turkeys the previous day. Like many soldiers, Babcock frequently records the weather in his diary. In May of 1864, the artillery unit moved to Fort Willard, Virginia. For most of that month, Babcock's diary continues to record picket and guard duties, as well as inspections and dress parades. On May 27, the regiment marched to Washington and loaded on to boats headed down the Potomac River. He spent several days on board the U.S. Transport Jefferson before marching from Port Royal to Bowling Green, Virginia.
In early June, the regiment was encamped at General Burnside's Headquarters near Cold Harbor, Virginia. On June 5, 1864, Babcock writes they were being shelled, which resulting in the "killing [of] one man from Co. K....+ one from Co. M. was wounded. this is the first time we have been under fire." He records several days of shelling before moving toward Petersburg. For most of June, July, and into August, Babcock's diary includes lengthy entries of his experiences from the rifle pits in Petersburg, as well as camp life. On July 30, he writes "losses very heavy on both sides our men occupy the same ground they did this morning. a total failure on our side." By mid-August, the 10th New York Heavy Artillery was camped at Fort Whipple, in Arlington, Virginia.
In early September, Babcock's entries find him increasingly ill and excused from duty. The regiment left for the Shenandaoh Valley in October and on October 8, Babcock writes, "slept in Hospital to night for the first time since I have been a soldier." He was transferred from Alexandria to Lincoln Hospital in Washington, D.C., where he remained until November. His entries for October are very brief. From November 6 to the end of the year, Babcock's diary is about his activities at home while on furlough. Willis A. Babcock enlisted as a private with Company B of the 10th Regiment, New York Heavy Artillery on December 8, 1862 (he notes his 19-month anniversary in his diary on March 8, 1864). He was probably born around 1840 and was living in Adams, Jefferson County, New York, prior to the Civil War. During November and December of 1864, Babcock was on a furlough which was extended from its initial 12 days to an additional 18 days. He spent it at home in New York. The memorandum section of the diary notes extended furlough pay in December. He appears to have mustered out as a corporal, but it is unclear if this occurred with the regiment or prior to the end of the war. There is no information about his life after the war.
The various companies of the 10th Regiment, New York Heavy Artillery were formed during the fall and winter of 1862. By June of 1863 the entire regiment was stationed in Washington, D.C. The regiment remained there until May 1864, when it moved to Cold Harbor, Virginia. The unit fought at a number of significant battles in Virginia, including Cold Harbor, a portion of the Petersburg campaign, and Cedar Creek in the Shenandoah Valley. In December 1864, the regiment moved again and was stationed at Bermuda Hundred, Virginia, until joining the Appomattox Campaign in March 1865, and the final battle at Petersburg in April. The 10th Regiment, New York Heavy Artillery mustered out in June of 1865.

William W. Barnett Diary, 1862 (Ms2012-075)
Subject
The topic of the resource
Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
A diary with one-page entries for the year of 1862. A few pages of memoranda follow on which Barnett has listed miscellaneous clothing expenses and his pay record for the year. The diary describes his time in hospital in January and February, as well as from September through December. These latter entries include his work as a nurse, particularly tending to the wounded following the battle of Fredericksburg in December 1862. Camp life and routine, visits with his brother Henry, and brief trips into Washington D.C. are among the topics mentioned. Barnett also mentions review of the division by President Lincoln, General McDowell, and Secretary Stanton in May near Fredericksburg and again by Lincoln and McClellan in July near Harrison's Landing. The diary includes descriptions of battle at Mechanicsville, Gaines' Mill, Frazier's Farm, and Malvern Hill in the Seven Day's campaign and at the Second Battle of Bull Run. William W. Barnett was born in Pennsylvania on 15 September 1840 and raised in Armstrong Co. in western Pennsylvania by parents Alexander and Hannah Barnett. The 1860 census shows him living in the Borough of Freeport of that county as a 19 year-old student with his parents; brothers Henry B. (age 21), Robert A. (age 10), Hezekiah W. (age 9); and sister Emily W. (age 16). He enlisted as a private in Co. A, 8th Pennsylvania Reserve Volunteer Corps (PRVC), also known as the 37th Volunteers, on 15 May 1861, a few days after his brother Henry enlisted in Co. G, 9th PRVC. The 8th and the 9th saw duty in and around Washington D.C., before marching to Hunter's Mill in Fairfax Co. on 10 March 1862 and returning to Alexandria four days later. Barnett would see action in Virginia during June at Mechanicsville and Gaines Mill in the Seven Days Campaign and, later that summer, at the second battle of Bull Run. Before his regiment engaged at Antietam in mid-September 1862, Barnett fell ill and was left behind at Harewood Hospital in Northeast Washington on the farm of W. W. Corcoran. On 27 September, he was assigned to duty as a nurse at the hospital, and though he would become sick again before the end of 1862, he would finish the year serving at the hospital. He was discharged from service with the rank of private on a Surgeon's Certificate on 20 March 1863, some three months after his brother Henry was similarly discharged.
After, presumably, returning home to western Pennsylvania, Barnett responded to the local call to form the 5th Pennsylvania Heavy Artillery (also known as the 204th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers) in August 1864. He was mustered in as a private, Battery M, on 2 September 1864. The regiment saw duty in the defense of Washington and along the Manassas Gap Railroad with engagements following at Salem and Rectortown in October 1864 before returning to Washington. Barnett was promoted to Sergeant and on 19 January 1865 was promoted to Second Lieutenant. He returned to Pittsburgh and mustered out with his battery on 30 June 1865.
Very little of Barnett's later life is known. An annotation added at a later date to Barnett's 1862 diary entry for 29 January reads, "Son of W. W. Barnett Wyllie Barnett was born January Friday 29 1875 - W. W. Barnett died Tuesday September 29 1876." A pension claim filed on 18 September 1890 by his widow cites the date of his death as Sept. 26 1876. As to the identity of his wife, nothing is known for certain, although the 1880 census does show a Rebecca Barnett living in the eastern Ohio county of Tuscarawas with her parents, Thomas and Sarah Laughead along with her five-year-old son, William Barnett.

Description
An account of the resource
The diary of Private Henry L. Burnell, Co. "I," 8th Maine Volunteer Infantry, 1859 - 1865. Burnell served in the Union Army from September 7, 1861 until July 22, 1865. Burnell's journal is written in short, often one-line, entries. The war-date material is often entered without regard to chronology and documents movements rather than details.
Henry L. Burnell, born June 2, 1841, was a resident of West Baldwin, Maine. There he was a member of the Temperance Society and participated in a local band as a percussionist. On August 8, 1861, Burnell enlisted in Captain McArthur's company for three years, but when the company took a leave of absence, Burnell enlisted in the state service for a term of three years. He began his service in coastal South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. Transferred to Virginia in 1864, he participated in actions near Petersburg. Captured at Drewry's Bluff, Burnell landed in Andersonville via Libby Prison and Danville, Virginia. Following several prison transfers, Burnell eventually arrived home in May of 1865. Burnell would marry a Clara Bliss, of West Baldwin, Maine, by 1871 and he died on May 11, 1912.

Title
A name given to the resource
Diary, Charles H. Bushee, 1863 (Ms2009-055)
Subject
The topic of the resource
Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
Bushee's diary is an account of his duties and the movements of Company E, 112 th Regiment, New York Infantry, from January to mid-November of 1863. Each entry begins with the phrase "1 day for Uncle Sam" and in the cash accounts in the back of the diary, Bushee refers to his pay as coming from "Uncle Sam." From September of 1862 to June of 1863, the 112 th New York Infantry was stationed in central and eastern Virginia. Bushee writes frequently of picket duty and skirmishes around Franklin, Carville [sic] (likely Carrsville), and Norfolk, Virginia. He also provides some details of the siege at Suffolk in April 1863.
In July, the regiment began the trip to Charleston, South Carolina. Bushee reports on the shelling at Fort Sumter from his posts around Fort Wagner, Black Island, and Charleston in August. Although he seems he often notes being ordered to and going to the front, he does not detail his actions there. By September, Bushee's increasing illness begins to dominate his diary. The last eight weeks of entries, ending abruptly on November 18 th, consists of little more than "feel unwell." Bushee died three weeks later.
The latter pages of the diary contain detailed cash accounts of Bushee's purchases, as well as a list of dead and wounded from the company, and dates he served on guard and picket duty.

Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
The diary of Alva Cleveland, a 57-year-old soldier who served as an orderly with the 1st Regiment, Wisconsin Infantry. The diary covers March to July 1862 while Cleveland's regiment was stationed around Nashville, Tennessee, and in northern Alabama. In the back pocket of the diary are several sewing needles and a lock of brown hair. The diary does not indentify whose hair it is.
Cleveland writes that he and George enlisted to 'take up arms in defense of that liberty that our fathers fought to Establish (sic).' Due to his position as orderly, however, Cleveland appears to have done little actual fighting. He was most often at the rear of the regiment, tending to and assisting in moving the sick and wounded when the camp moved. He frequently writes of staying behind as the mobile portion of the regiment moves forward and, when they are separated, notes his concern for his young son.
Cleveland's diary entries are lengthy narratives on camp life, moving camps and marches, records of letters and money sent to and from home, and most commmonly, stories of people he meets along the way. He tells detailed stories of positive and negative encounters with Union and Confederate supporters. Although Cleveland prvides some accounts of skirmishes, he does not record any particular battles or battle reports.

Description
An account of the resource
The diary of Jacob Cohn, a soldier in Company A, 54th Pennsylvania Infantry during the Civil War. Cohn's brief entries commence with April 14, 1864 and trace his regiment's movements and battles, particularly those at New Market and Piedmont. The entries cease with June 18, 1864, and are followed by the names of Company A's soldiers wounded and killed at the Battle of New Market. The diary also contains various lists of goods and prices, some dated June-September 1863. Jacob Cohn enlisted as a private in Company A, 54th Pennsylvania Infantry on February 10, 1864. He is listed among soldiers who served from Cambria County, Pennsylvania, in which Company A recruited. Cohn's name does not appear on the regiment's muster-out roll, and no further information about him could be found.
The 54th Pennsylvania Infantry was organized in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania in August and September, 1861, having recruited largely in Somerset and surrounding counties of southwestern Pennsylvania. In February 1862, the regiment was ordered to Washington, D. C., then to Harpers Ferry, (West) Virginia, from which the individual companies were dispatched to guard strategic points along a 60-mile section of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. Company A guarded the vicinity of South Branch Bridge.
As part of the Union Army's Department of West Virginia, the regiment participated in the Shenandoah Campaign of 1864, engaging the Confederates in several battles, including those at New Market, Piedmont and Lynchburg. In December 1864, the 54th was assigned to the Army of the James and transferred to Petersburg, Virginia. There, it participated in the siege against the city, the pursuit of Lee's forces, and the Appomattox campaign. The regiment was mustered out of service on July 15, 1865.

Diary, Richard Colburn, 1861-1863 (Ms2010-010)
Subject
The topic of the resource
Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
The Civil War diary of Richard Colburn, an enlisted soldier of the 12th Infantry of the United States Regular Army attached to the Army of the Potomac. The diary contains entries from December 18, 1861 to February 17, 1863 and details camp life, daily activities, battles, and experience as a prisoner of the Confederate army. It traces Colburn's first days in the army in Iowa and his travel from 14 February 1862 when he left Iowa to his arrival at Fort Hamilton in New York City two days later and his continuing journey to Washington DC. Upon arrival in Washington, Colburn notes that he "put in to help cook." Many of his subsequent entries include brief notations of cooking for the men. Expecting to march to Manassas Junction from Washington, he moved first to Camp California, just outside Alexandria, VA, and from there to Fort Monroe in late March 1862.
The 12th Infantry, marching from Fort Monroe, became involved in the Peninsula Campaign, which lasted into July 1862. Coburn refers to "the hard battle between Yorktown and Richmond" (Battle of Williamsburg) on May 5th and makes reference to Big Bethel and Camp Winfield Scott where he was camped. On Friday 27 June 1862, Coburn was engaged in the Battle of Gaines' Mill and writes, "marched off to the left where we had a heavy battle where Maj. Clitz [Henry Boynton Cliz] myself and several others were wounded and taken prisoner by the 5th regiment Va, with some that was not wounded, many killed." The remainder of the diary describes his time in hospital, both Confederate and Union, his eventual release on 15 January 1863, and his trip home. Colburn's last entry is dated 17 February 1863 when he was in Southington, Ohio visiting his sister on his way, presumably, to Iowa.

Description
An account of the resource
This collection contains the diary of Otis Dean, a private in Company E, 56th Massachusetts Infantry during the Civil War. The diary entries begin with January 4, 1865, with Dean listing the uniform and materials issued to him in camp. In very concise entries, Dean describes mostly routine personal and unit activities (making particularly careful note of the clothing and equipment issued to him), but he also mentions battles at North Anna River and Peebles' Farm; an inspection by generals Grant and Burnside; prices of various goods, and the names of comrades killed, wounded and captured. The diary's entries conclude with June 13, 1865: "I washed my shirt."
Otis Dean, a private in Company E, 56th Massachusetts Infantry during the Civil War, was born on March 1, 1821 at Raynham, Massachusetts, the son of Chandler Robbins Dean and Abigail [Bissn?]. Dean married Augusta Dunbar (born October 1826) on January 4, 1848. By 1850, the Deans were living in Foxborough Massachusetts, where Otis Dean was employed as a boot-maker.
Dean enlisted in the Union Army as a private on December 30, 1863 and was mustered into Company E of the 56th Massachusetts on January 12, 1864. Wounded in battle at Peebles' Farm (September 30), Dean was captured by Confederate forces and held at Richmond. Paroled on October 8, 1864, Dean entered an army hospital at Annapolis, Maryland. He was granted a furlough later that month and spent several weeks recuperating at home and in the hospital at Readville, Massachusetts. After spending several additional weeks in hospitals at Annapolis and Germantown, Pennsylvania, Dean rejoined his regiment on March 20, 1865 and was discharged on June 15, 1865.
Returning to Foxborough, Dean by 1870 had become a farmer and the father of eight children (Mary, Frederick, Arthur, Edwin, William, Ernest, Harry and Herbert). The 1880 census found the family living in Arcadia Township, Iowa. Though no occupation was listed for Dean, three of his sons, living in the same household, were listed as farmers. By 1900, the Deans had again moved westward and were living in San Bernadino County, California. Otis Dean died on March 21, 1907; his wife, in 1911. Both are buried in Bellevue Cemetery of Ontario, San Bernadino County, California.
The 56th Massachusetts Infantry was recruited during the fall and winter of 1863 at Readville, Massachusetts. By February 1864, the entire regiment had been mustered into service. On March 20, the 56th left Massachusetts for Annapolis, Maryland, where it remained for approximately a month. Following the line of the Orange & Alexandria Railroad, the regiment arrived at Bealeton Station on April 30 and remained encamped there until May 4, when it joined the rest of the Army of the Potomac in the Wilderness Campaign. The 56th saw heavy action during the following month and participated in the assault against Petersburg in June and July 1864. The regiment participated in the battle of Weldon Railroad (August 19) and Peebles' Farm (September 30). In November, the 56th went into winter camp at Fort Davis and Fort Alexander Hays. The 56th joined in the final assault on Petersburg and the pursuit of Lee's forces and was mustered out on July 12, 1865.

Description
An account of the resource
The diary of John H. Hancock, who served in Company H, 29th Massachusetts Infantry during the Civil War. The diary entries cover January-June 1862, with a single entry made from Paris, Kentucky on April 1, 1863. Hancock's diary entries relate largely routine information such as weather conditions, personal health, camp routines, and troop movements. Longer entries relate to orders, marching, battles, and war news. Frequent mentions are made of gun boats. Contrabands and prisoners of war are also mentioned, as are activities of other regiments within the brigade. The last approximately two thirds of the diary were blank pages and were not scanned.
John H. Hancock, a sergeant in Company H, 29th Massachusetts Infantry during the Civil War, was born ca. 1841 in Massachusetts. While employed as a clerk, Hancock enlisted as a private at Charlestown, Massachusetts, in a unit that would be designated as Company H, 29th Massachusetts Infantry and join the remainder of the regiment already deployed on the Virginia Pensinsula. Hancock was promoted to corporal on August 3, 1862, and to sergeant on March 15, 1863. Wounded, he was discharged from the service on August 25, 1864. Returning to Massachusetts, Hancock married later that year. Together with his wife, Annie, Hancock resided in Chelsea, Massachusetts, and was employed as a custom house inspector. The couple had several children (including Lucy B., Elizabeth, Annie, Herbert and Edgar W.). John H. Hancock died on September 9, 1913.
The 29th Massachusetts Infantry was organized at Newport News, Virginia, in December 1861, combining the existing 1st Battalion Massachusetts Infantry with three new companies (including Company H) organized in the Suffolk County, Massachusetts area. The regiment remained on the Virginia Peninsula until the end of August, participating in battles at Fair Oaks and Malvern Hill. With the failure of the Peninsula Campaign, the 29th withdrew to Washington, D.C., where it assisted in covering the retreat from the second battle of Bull Run, then joined in the advance into Maryland. The regiment saw heavy losses at the Battle of Antietam. During the fall and winter of 1862, the 29th remained in the northern Virginia area. In the spring, it was transferred westward and participated in the siege of Vicksburg and the capture of Jackson, Mississippi. The regiment spent the fall and winter in eastern Tennessee, participating in the battle of Campbell's Station, then was transferred to eastern Virginia, where it took part in the Wilderness Campaign and the siege of Petersburg. After the fall of Petersburg and Richmond, the regiment returned to northern Virginia. It was mustered out of service on July 29, 1865.

Description
An account of the resource
Christian Hook was a Union Corporal in 151st Ohio Infantry (National Guard) during the Civil War. The collection contains his diary of May to August 1864, including entries on camp life and a near-court martial, as well as a reunion flyer for the regiment from 1925. Entries primarily detail Hook's movements and actions from the day before mustering in Ohio until a few days before his return. Hook notes passing Harpers Ferry and encountering wounded soldiers returning home. Most days are described as "pleasant" in the fortifications around Washington, D.C. throughout the first half of Hook's deployment. Lincoln arrived in camp on July 10. His subsequent addresses show he knew Confederate Lt. Gen. Jubal A. Early's forces would be arriving within a day and proceeded to stay in camp to observe the fighting, now referred to as the Battle of Fort Stevens. The strong defenses of Fort Stevens minimized the military threat and Early withdrew after two days of skirmishing without attempting any serious assaults.
Hook notes the fortifications around Washington returned to quiet by July 14. All entries return to describing the days as pleasant until July 30. An apparent disagreement over the posting of troops resulted in Hook's arrest and detainment at Fort Sumner while awaiting trial for court martial. For unapparent reasons, Hook was released August 6. The rest of the journal notes his picket duty, although the dates August 10-15 are missing. Diary concludes with Hook in Baltimore August 21 awaiting departure to Harrisburg and ultimately to Ohio for the Regiment to be mustered out.
Excerpt from July 11: "Old abe was here to day about 11 o

<p>found my wife and children well.
One is two servants and[?]</p>
<p>arch Typhus fever. I suffered
all day with pains in my head</p>
<p>and neck.</p>
<p>Tu 6th</p>
<p>Spent the day at Mr Kennerly’s
suffering with pain in my</p>
<p>head, neck and right shoulder. I
think it must be [Nearalged?]</p>
<p>W 7th</p>
<p>This morning between seven and
eight O’clock when i went</p>
<p>down from my room I learned that
last night Three [horses?]</p>
<p>mine among them were stolen out
of Mr. Kennerly’s pasture</p>
<p>last night. Mr Kennerly, Robert
Crawford, [M W Keller?] +</p>
<p>I started in pursuit, and
tracked them by the Blackrock</p>
<p>springs and along the top of the
Blue ridge of mountains</p>
<p>and into the turnpike on the top
of the ridge at Browns gap-</p>
<p>Here we turned to the East, and
learned at a house, about</p>
<p>mile from the top of the
mountain, that some [persons?]</p></td>
<td><p> </p>
<p>Oct 1863</p>
<p> </p>
<p>on horse back had passed them a
short time before day, [really?]</p>
<p>very rapidly. We dined at bro.
Clifton Brown’s about six miles</p>
<p>from the top of the mountain.
Here Mr Kennerly left us to re-</p>
<p>turn home being to much
fatiguied to continye the pursuit. having</p>
<p>traveled about eighteen miles
over an excedingly rough road. The rest</p>
<p>of us ie Crawford, Keller and
myself turned back a few hundred</p>
<p>yards and took the Madison C.H.
road, thinking perhaps they</p>
<p>had taken that road. After
traveling about two miles I learned</p>
<p>at a Mr Blackwell’s that a
servant of the family saw three</p>
<p>[torman?] and a man on horseback
pass there about sunrise ri</p>
<p>ding very rapidly. One of them
on a white horse. All three of</p>
<p>ours were boys. About three
miles farther on we came to a</p>
<p>number of persons at work in the
road, and learned that</p>
<p>this company had passed on. One
of the company said "these</p>
<p>were Mont Marshall family going
to Madison", I had called at</p>
<p>Marshall, just before getting
into the turnpike to inquire about</p>
<p>the horses not knowing who lived
there, or suspecting that they were</p>
<p>the thieves. We continued the
pursuit, and at Nortonsville learned from Mr Elliot</p>
<p>that the company had taken the
[Stannan’s?]ville road. we had</p>
<p>a hard shower of rain, and while
it was yet raining we called</p>
<p>at the house of bro Dunn about half a mile from</p></td>

<p> </p>
<p>Fr. 6th</p>
<p>Last night about one O’clock
some one came to bro. [Stern?]</p>
<p>hog pen, just in the edge of his
yard and killed and</p>
<p>carried off one of his fattening
hogs. I never heard any</p>
<p>thing to equal the stealing that
is carried on, at this</p>
<p>time. I dined to day at bro.
Daniel Turner’s and spent</p>
<p>the night at old bro. Henry
Doggett’s.</p>
<p>Sa. 7th</p>
<p>[<i>Continued sideways</i>]</p>
<p>Heary fight near Rappahannock</p>
<p>the enemy captured nearly two
brigades</p>
<p>and four pieces of artilliy. We
killed +</p>
<p>wounded a great many of them</p>
<p>This morning I baptized four
persons by immersion, in</p>
<p>bro. Wm O. Doggett’s ice pond.
The water was intensely cold.</p>
<p>Three of these persons were
young ladies and they were</p>
<p>so much engaged in trying to
prevent their clothes from</p>
<p>floating on the water that I doubt
if they were as com</p>
<p>posed, and devout as persons
ought to be when receiving</p>
<p>so solemn an ordinance. And I
believe this is generally</p>
<p>the case with ladies when
baptized in this mode. I dined</p>
<p>and spent the night at Rev. F.W.
Scott’s.</p>
<p>S 8</p>
<p>To day I preached at St Paul’s
on the subject of baptism</p>
<p>to a large and attentive
congregation. This closed my labor</p>
<p>on the circuit so far as
preaching is concerned. I dined</p>
<p>at Ino. Geo. Colemans, and
baptized there. Lizzie Barton</p>
<p>daughter of Ino. V. Wyatt, aged
three months. I spent</p>
<p>the night at his house in
Hanover Co. The circuit has</p>
<p>met all its expenses and paid me
about one hundred dol</p>
</td>
<td><p> </p>
<p>Nov. 1863</p>
<p> </p>
<p>lars more than was assessed last
January. I have raised</p>
<p>considerably upwards of three
hundred dollars for the</p>
<p>Missonary cause, and $284.00
conf. collection lacking only</p>
<p>one dollar of being three times
the amount assessed up.</p>
<p>I have spent a pleasant year

Rev. PW Archer was acquitted</p>
<p>no formal charges were laid in

<p>Do</p>
<p>Th 14th</p>
<p>Today my wife had considerable
fever arising from hav-</p>
<p>-ing taken cold in her breast,
causing what the Dr call,</p>
<p>“the Weed.” Mr Kennerly is also
sick. Dr Kennerly thinks</p>
<p>he has the Typhoid fever.</p>
<p>Fr 15th</p>
<p>My wife took Calomel last night,
and oil this mor</p>
<p>ning, and kept her bed all day
nearly, but [?] from</p>
<p>fever</p>
<p>Sa 16th</p>
<p>My wife and her father were both
better.</p>
<p>s. 17th</p>
<p>I preached at New Hope chruchto
a large and atten</p>
<p>tive congregation. A great many
soldiers were present.</p>
<p>Rev Mr Smith whose appointment I
filled was ab</p>
<p>-sent. This afternoon, Cyrus one
of Mr Kennerly’s ser</p>
<p>vants, about fourteen years of
age died of Typhoid</p>
<p>fever which is the sixth negro
he has lost in about</p>
<p>a year past. God has mercifully
spared my fam</p>
<p>-ily, so that none of them has
died during this</p>
<p>sickness. I trust that I am
truly thankful to</p>
<p>Him for His great goodness to us</p></td>

<p>I received a letter from my
wife. She thinks that she is</p>
<p>still improving, but had had her
fears excited that her breast</p>
<p>might rise in another place. I
trust it will not. I</p>
<p>dined at bro. F. W. Scott’s, and
spent the night at</p>
<p>Mr Philip Reynolds’. I leanred
today that bro. Samuel</p>
<p>Chandler was taken prisoner by
the yankees under Gen Kilpatrick on last</p>
<p>Thursday in King + Queen in
Essex Co. They were crossing</p>
<p>their forces over the
Rappahannock under cover of their</p>
<p>Gunboats at Bowler’s landing. So
I understand</p>

<p>occasionally fell.</p>
<p>W. 16</p>
<p>Rode to bro. Hugh Chandler’s to
dinner and spent</p>
<p>the night. The newspapers state
that Kilpatricks forces</p>
<p>have arrived, by transports, at
Alexandria. They failed</p>
<p>in their effort to cross the
Rappahannock and to go up the</p>
<p>northern neck of Virginia</p>

<p>Tu. 29th</p>
<p>Today I finished reading The

He weighed one hun</p>
<p>dred and twenty two pounds,
usually preached about 800</p>
<p>times a year + traveled annually
between three and</p>
<p>four thousand miles, and
retained all his physical</p>
<p>and mental powers unimpaired

<p>85 or 86 years of age. His
Journal is stored with interes</p>
<p>ting and useful reflections, and
facts. Contains many</p>
<p>strange accounts of Apparitions.
+ as related to him by</p>
<p>persons of intelligence and
piety. This will and does de</p>
<p>-tract from his character with
many of far less piety</p>

<p>piety and triumphant deaths of
others will quicken</p>
<p>me to the more faithful

<p>I rode to bro. Hugh Chandler’s

<p>received a letter from my wife,
and another from my nephew</p>
<p>ThP E. Murrell. The one from
T.E.M. stating that his father Jeffrey</p>
<p>M. had sent him on the 20th [?]
$177 83/100 in payment for Mason’s bond of 150</p>
<p>due Dec. 25th 1860. So I must
lose by this transaction on this</p>
<p>amt. on [??] neglect of my
agent, I suppose as</p>
<p>after the 1^ day of April that
is all it will be worth according</p>
<p>to law. This was a very windy
day.</p>
<p>’’ 31st</p>
<p>Dined at bro. James Smith’s.
Called at Blacksmith’s [shgl?]</p>
<p>and paid six dollars for shoeing
my horse, and spent the</p>
<p>night at bro. S. Edgar Swann’s.
Weather cold and cloudy.</p>
<p>April Fr 1st</p>
<p>Observed this as a day of
fasting and prayer. A few of us</p>
<p>met at Rehoboth and spent
upwards of an hour in singing, prayer</p>
<p>[etc?]. I went home with bro. Wm
James Hancock, and in the</p>
<p>afternoon we rode to the Misses
Smith’s, very poor mem-</p>
<p>bers of the Church, and spent an
hour, and prayed with</p>
<p>them. This was a damp and cool
day with some rain.</p>
<p>Sa 2nd</p>
<p>It commenced raining last night
early in the night,</p>
<p>and this morning about day it
changed to snow, and</p>
<p>it continued to fall,

<p>tiful day</p>
<p>Tu. 29th</p>
<p>Today I finished reading The
Journal of Rev. [Mo?]</p>
<p>Wesley. What a remarkable man!
He weighed one hun</p>
<p>dred and twenty two pounds,
usually preached about 800</p>
<p>times a year + traveled annually
between three and</p>
<p>four thousand miles, and
retained all his physical</p>
<p>and mental powers unimpaired
until he was about</p>
<p>85 or 86 years of age. His
Journal is stored with interes</p>
<p>ting and useful reflections, and
facts. Contains many</p>
<p>strange accounts of Apparitions.
+ as related to him by</p>
<p>persons of intelligence and
piety. This will and does de</p>
<p>-tract from his character with
many of far less piety</p>
<p>and intelligence than he was. I
trust that the reading</p>
<p>of his diligence and zeal and
the instances of deep</p>
<p>piety and triumphant deaths of
others will quicken</p>
<p>me to the more faithful
discharge of my duties as</p>
<p>a christian + Christian
minister. I left bro. Burruss</p>
<p>in the afternoon, and spent the
night at his son Atwall’s</p></td>

<p>[<i>Continued sideways</i>]</p>
<p>A fight between Breckenridge +
Imboden of the con</p>
<p>federates and Hunter of the
yankee army near</p>
<p>Waynesboro. Yankees burnt
Arrington depot in</p>
<p>Nelson county</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I rode to Dr Baldwin Buckner’s
in Louisa County sixteen</p>
<p>miles below the C.H. making a
ride of twenty five miles today</p>
<p>At Dr B’s I found bro. Wm T.
Chandler, one of the stewards of my</p>
<p>circuit, who was wounded in the
heel on the 22d all in Caroline</p>
<p>Co. At Louisa C.H. I learned
that the yankees under the</p>
<p>command of the notorious raider
Genl Sheridan, were at</p>
<p>New Market (Paitlow’s tavern) on
my circuit at 6 O’clock</p>
<p>P.M. yesterday, advancing up the
country. I met the ad</p>
<p>vance guard of our forces of
five Brigades under Maj.</p>
<p>Genl. Wade Hampton near
Tolersville six miles below the</p>
<p>court house, and passed the rear
guard just below Fredericks</p>
<p>Hall, on their way to overtake
the Yankees.</p>
<p>Sa. 11th</p>
<p>This morning very early our
forces joined battle with the</p>
<p>yankees near Louisa C.H. and the
musketry firing was</p>
<p>quite fierce, and was very
distinctly heard at Dr. Buckner’s</p>
<p>I concluded it would be unsafe
to go on to my circuit +</p>
<p>determined to return to
Albemarle to my family. I rode</p>
<p>to Tolersville Depot. six miles
from the c.House where the</p>
<p>fighting was going on, and then
bore off to the left by yan</p>
<p>ceysville [Yanceyville], and
crossed the "Three notched road" at Fleming’s</p>

night with something of cholic</p>
<p>or Biliary calculus, which
caused me to be very much in</p>

preached at Bird Chapel for</p>

charge of Fluvauna [Fluvanna] circuit) +</p>
<p>dined at bro. Anderson Hughes’

<p>borhood of Trevillians
[Trevilians] Depot, with considerable advantage</p>
<p>to us.</p>

Journal, B. H. Johnson, 1863-1864 (Ms2008-093)
Subject
The topic of the resource
Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
The B. H. Johnson Journal is a handwritten account of one year from September 1863 to September 1864 recorded by a Methodist circuit riding minister of eastern Virginia. Some mentioned locations within Virginia are Shiloh, Charlottesville, Salem, Port Royal, Spotsylvania, Hanover County, Augusta County, Caroline County, and Madison County, among others.

Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
The Civil War diary of Captain Daniel A. Lowber of Company A, 37th Wisconsin Infantry. The diary entries commence with July 25, 1864, with Lowber apparently in transit to his regiment after a temporary furlough. He joins the regiment the day after the Battle of the Crater and takes command on August 1, noting that his new command has only 18 men fit for duty. In daily entries spanning the next five months, Lowber mentions frequent picket and fatigue duty and notes his routine administrative duties as well. He also mentions trading papers with a Confederate soldier between the lines, his living quarters, church services, news of Sheridan's victories in the Shenandoah Valley, the regiment's tally in the 1864 presidential election, and Thanksgiving. Lowber also describes actions during several battles, including perhaps most significantly the Battle of Peeble's Farm. The diary entries cease with December 31, 1864.

Description
An account of the resource
Civil War diary of George H. Marshall, a soldier in Company K, 113th Pennsylvania Heavy Artillery during the Civil War. The diary contains short entries spanning one year, beginning with Marshall's enlistment on February 24, 1864. The diary's early entries cover Marshall's enlistment and the movement of his regiment. Later entries, made from Fort Monroe, Virginia, at which the 113th was stationed, relate to the daily routines of Marshall, his regiment, and the fort. Marshall notes such details as the weather, the condition of his health, and his correspondence but also makes mention of prisoners of war, African American troops, the wounded, and skirmishes with the Confederates.
George H. Marshall of Company K, 113th Pennsylvania Heavy Artillery, was born in Pennsylvania, ca. 1835. The son of Sarah Marshall, he lived in Chester County before enlisting as a private in Company K of the 113th on February 23, 1864. He was promoted to full artificer on September 3, 1865. After the mustering out of his regiment at Fort Monroe, Marshall returned to Chester County, Pennsylvania, where he recommenced working as a carpenter. Survived by his wife, Ruth, Marshall died on March 19, 1919 and is buried in the Romansville, Pennsylvania Friends Burial Ground.
The 113th Pennsylvania Heavy Artillery was organized in Philadelphia by consolidation of Segebarth's Battalion of Marine Artillery and the 1st Battalion, Pennsylvania Artillery, with two additional companies formed in Philadelphia. The regiment was ordered to Fortress Monroe, Virginia, serving at times in Graham's Naval Brigade and engaging Confederate forces on the James, Chickhominy and Nansemond rivers. The regiment was mustered out of service at Fort Monroe on November 9, 1865.

Description
An account of the resource
This collection contains the Civil War diary of Corporal John R. Maybury of Company L, 10th New York Cavalry. The first entry in the diary (January 1, 1864) finds Maybury encamped in northern Virginia and describing routines of camp life (drilling, washing clothes, policing quarters, buying goods from the sutler, picket and forage duty, drawing a new uniform, inspection, building quarters). The weather conditions are noted on a daily basis.
In March, contacts with civilians and enemy combatants grow more frequent, with references to taking prisoners (soldiers, a lady spy and bushwackers) and denying passage through the lines. Maybury makes occasional reference to camp rumors, such as a supposed sighting of Stuart's cavalry and the taking of Richmond by Kirkpatrick. In May, the regiment sees more action, with Maybury noting the capture and burning of Virginia Central Railroad supply trains at Beaver Dam Station, the capture of guns at Ashland, heavy fighting near Richmond, and a description of action at the Battle of Haw's Shop. For the next several months, Maybury alludes to frequent skirmishes and battles with the Confederates. In the fall, Maybury's entries revert to camp activities and routines (including mention of an inspection by generals Meade and Gregg), with less frequent references to engagements with the enemy. The diary ends with Maybury traveling to the hospital, following the wound he had sustained the previous day. At the end of the diary are a few notes made by Maybury on the clothing he had drawn in service and the pension had had drawn afterward.
The collection also contains a metal stencil bearing Maybury's name and unit and a small piece of cloth on to which Maybury's name has been stenciled. John R. Maybury, son of Josiah and Dorcas Blake Maybury, was born in Solon (Cortland County), New York, in 1828. He enlisted in Company L, 28th New York Cavalry at Solon on September 10, 1862. Eventually promoted to corporal, Maybury received a gunshot wound to the right hand on December 1, 1864. He was hospitalized at City Point, Virginia until December 16, when he was transferred to Finley General Hospital in Washington, D. C. He remained there until mustered out as a supernumerary non-commissioned officer on June 26, 1865.
Upon his release from military service, Maybury returned to the Solon area, where he married Emogene Pierce (1837-1916) in 1866. The couple had four daughters: Mary R., Rena D., Helen and Sarah. In addition to working on his 65-acre farm, Maybury served as a justice of the peace. He died in 1917 and is buried in McGraw Village Cemetery.
The 10th New York Cavalry was organized in Erie, Chemung, Chenango, Cortland, Fulton, Steuben and Onondaga counties. Companies I, K and L were mustered in at Elmira, October 29-30, 1862, and joined the regiment in the defense of Washington, D. C. on December 5. The regiment remained in the area of Virginia's northern neck peninsula through the winter, engaging in several skirmishes. In the spring of 1863, the 10th participated in Stoneman's raid toward Richmond. The regiment participated in a number of significant battles in 1863 and 1864, including Brandy Station, Gettysburg, The Wilderness and Cold Harbor, and several smaller battles. After participating in General Sheridan's Trevilian Raid in June 1864, the 10th spent much of the remainder of the war in the siege of Petersburg and participated in the Appomattox Campaign. The regiment was consolidated with the 24th New York in June, then mustered out of service at Syracuse, New York on August 3, 1865.

Description
An account of the resource
The Civil War diary of James Miles, an enlisted soldier in the 185th Regiment of the New York Infantry. The diary describes soldier life and spans from January to March 1865 until the author was killed in action. Entries include descriptions of battles and the deaths of soldiers by snipers. Miles' short entries relate the physical and emotional difficulties of being a soldier as evidenced by an entry about a fellow soldier who had deserted, 'supposed to shoot him but didn't have it in me'. The last entry is on the day before Miles was killed in action which was ten days before the end of the war.
James Miles enlisted with Company K of the 185th Regiment, New York Infantry at Syracuse, New York on September 3, 1864. The 185th regiment was organized at Syracuse, New York and Company K was mustered in September 21, 1864. The regiment left for Petersburg, Virginia on September 27, 1864 and was attached to the 1st Brigade, 1st Division, 5th Army corps of the Army of the Potomac until May of 1865. During the term of service, the regiment lost 59 soldiers by death from wounds and 39 enlisted men by death from diseases. Miles was killed in action on March 29, 1865.
Much of this information was found at http://www.itd.nps.gov/cwss/index.html. Additional information on the 185th Regiment of the New York Infantry can be found at http://www.dmna.state.ny.us/historic/reghist/civil/infantry/185thInf/185thInfMain.htm

Description
An account of the resource
cash book maintained by Confederate Captain Charles L. C. Minor from 1860 to 1864. Also contained within the cash book's pages are diary entries of Union Army Private Edward P. Harmon (5th Maine Infantry) during May and June, 1864. Research materials on the two soldiers (including photocopies of maps, muster rolls, census records, and an image of Harmon) and a complete photocopy of the piece are also included.
The small volume of 68 pages, bearing on its spine the embossment "cash book," was retained for its intended use by Captain Minor, its original owner, to carefully record personal expenditures and savings. Minor's records commence with November 6, 1860 and end on May 4, 1864. In recording these financial transactions, Minor provides details regarding his daily whereabouts and activities. He records meal and travel purchases, as well as amounts paid to individual servants, expenses for personal and household items, services, and military gear. Also recorded within the book are Minor's bank transactions for 1861-1862, a list of silver wedding gifts received by Fanny Cazenove Minor, and a list of stocks and bonds held by Minor.
The cash book was among materials seized by Federal troops in the act of destroying the rail line and depot at Hewletts Station, Virginia on May 25, 1864, and came into the possession of Private Harmon, who used it as a diary. (As the first diary entry predates the volume's capture by three weeks, we may surmise that the early entries were made retrospectively or that they were copied from another book.) Harmon's first entry, for May 2, finds his regiment having just crossed the Hazel River and preparing to cross the Rapidan. Soon, Harmon describes fearful, endless shelling by "cast iron hummingbirds" during the Battle of the Wilderness. Harmon briefly mentions African American troops, Confederate prisoners of war, and camp rumors. As the regiment marches toward Spotsylvania Court House, Harmon mentions a fire in which many wounded soldiers were killed. He describes heavy fighting and losses at Spotsylvania and at one point questions the actions of the Brigade commander. As his regiment endures battles at North Anna and Cold Harbor, Harmon describes the morale of his comrades ("very much broken up they are tired heartsick &amp; discouraged") and himself ("sick, tired &amp; worn out too night this is our 9th day of slaughter"). Many of the entries center on his brigade's movements and preparations for battles that often fail to materialize. Harmon's diary entries end with June 3, 1864. Following the June 3 entry is a gap, indicating the removal of several pages, and a page of wartime accounts held by Harmon and I. F. Goodwin.
The volume also contains two botanical samples, one of which appears to be a collection of four-leaved clovers, tipped into the first two pages.

<p>prayer meeting Mr Hall came up very kindly and asked about</p>
<p>Sallie, eh told me that Mrs Buckner had told him Dr. W.s had</p>
<p>told her that Sallie was <span style="text-decoration: underline;">dangerously ill</span> but that he had not</p>
<p>told Ma so. I said to him Oh! Sir we know & could in no longer.</p>

<p>on the pretext it looks too much, as if we might</p>
<p>have rain in a very short space of time.</p>
<p>Jamie went over to St. Josephs this morning</p>
<p>and has not returned yet, he must intend</p>
<p>to remain over until morning. He leaves</p>
<p>us in a most unprotected state with no white male</p>
<p>any where near. We are
in the hands of</p>
<p>God why should we fear. I hope if there</p>
<p>is any insurrection in this neighborhood</p>
<p>that my death may not be a slow one as</p>
<p>I beleive that I should not be killed any</p>
<p>way. I beleive that Ben as Henry would save</p>
<p>Jamie and I any how, as they they like us</p>
<p>so much. (Still I wish to die if Ma is killed)</p>
<p>(We live in classroom times).</p></td>

<p>happy. I sometimes think I should like to be a hermit live</p>
<p>alone and die alone where no can misunderstand</p>
<p>me. Very open when I say & do thoughtless things I am</p>
<p>reproved so very very harshly when I have near meant</p>
<p>anything by it. This is what makes me so unhappy.</p>
<p>I want to love my fellow men but they will not allow me</p>
<p>to do it. It has been a comfort to me to darken</p>
<p>paper with this these unhappy feelings which I can</p>
<p>never tell to any human ear.</p>
<p>My god I strive to serve thee. but Oh! how many</p>
<p>many times I fail. Enable oh! Enable one to live</p>
<p>a better life.</p></td>

<p>P</p>
<p>March 21st</p>
<p>A bright and beautiful day. Oh! that everyone</p>
<p>in this sinful world could be as bright and pleasant as it is.</p>
<p>Today <u>Ginnie</u> and I had a “fall out”. While Mrs Bopland
&</p>
<p>Sallie were in the parlor the former giving the latter a music</p>
<p>lesson. Mrs C. left Ginnie and I to do our summers to gether.
Well we</p>
<p>got along very to–gether for some time (as we <u>always</u> do)
until we</p>
<p>came to quite a different sum. I do not know what was the
matter with</p>
<p>Ginnie but she would have it that in subtracting 18600 17547
you did</p>
<p>not carry one in the lower figure when you added 10 in the
upper</p>
<p>I think she was confused. I explained & explained it to her
and</p>
<p>declared she had always done it, but she said “No No”! it was
not so</p>
<p>she had never done it in her life. I got pretty angry at last
and at last</p>
<p>told her “she was a <u>fool</u> if she stuck to that” she then
told me, she wished</p>
<p>I would “<u>shut up</u> if I couldn’t talk any better than
that” and added she </p>
<p>didn’t want to come back here anyhow” (Ma & Mrs C had had a
slight trouble</p>
<p>some days before and Ma had said Mrs C and her Family came a
great deal of trouble</p>
<p>upon this Ginnie had been sent away but afterwards returned) I
answered</p>
<p>“I did not care if every one of them left in one bunch for New
Orleans”</p>
<p>right off.” These 4 remarks ended the conversation. Nothing
more was</p>
<p>said on either side all day and through supper she never said a</p>
<p>word & her eyes looked as if she had been crying. All day I
was uncomfortable</p>
<p>for we were friends, & when friends quarrel both sides are
always <u>lose</u>.</p>
<p>So I felt I would not have fallen out with Ginnie for </p>
<p>anything. We were dear friends. We had told each other</p></td>
<td><p> </p>
<p><s>March 2th 1862</s> all our troubles, and had always been</p>
<p>affectionate and [?] to gether. We neither of us looked</p>
<p>at or spoke to each other, both were undoubtedly very
uncomfortable.</p>
<p>At night after tea I was sitting in Mary’s room waiting for <s>Mary</s>
some</p>
<p>one to bring Me a light to begin to study, and was thinking
over</p>
<p>our quarrel when Ginnie opened the door and without coming said</p>
<p>“Where’s Essie” I answered “I did not know then in a changed
and</p>
<p>gentle tone said “I [?] she is in the dining room” she had
started </p>
<p>to go out but turned and came in again and shut the door.</p>
<p>We both seemed a little timid about speaking, but I said in a
soft</p>
<p>and rather [?] way “Are you mad” “Yes I am so” she said</p>
<p>“Well, said I don’t lets you and I fall out” No, said she I would</p>
<p>rather have fallen out with every one in the house than you.”</p>
<p>Then I explained the matter to her. “Why I said I have often</p>
<p>called you that before and never thought of you getting mad”
She</p>
<p>said she, that was not what made me feel so bad, but you said</p>
<p>“<u>you did not care</u> if <u>we all</u> went away” Well said
I Ginnie dont you thin</p>
<p>it is agravaling to be forever told “you wish you away from
here”</p>
<p>and “you wish you was in New Orleans” and all that. I then told</p>
<p>her I was sorry though after I said it, although she had drawn</p>
<p>it out of me. So the matter ended and I thought as I</p>
<p>went to bed “Behold how great a matter, a little fire Kindleth”</p>
<p>Thus are so many quarrel made. If we had not</p>
<p>explained the matter and made up, we might never have healed
the</p>
<p>matter. It is these dumb devils as Dr. Breckenridge call them</p>
<p>what makes so much trouble. </p></td>

<p>April 18th (“Battle of Shiloh” fought 5 & 6 the day of Ap
1862)</p>
<p>We have had stirring times at [?] tiney I last wrote in</p>
<p>this book. There was a battle on the 5th & 6th (sunday,
monday)</p>
<p>Two of our greatest victories, the battle of Bull run &
Shiloh were</p>
<p>fought on the sabbath. We gained a complete victory on</p>
<p>sunday On monday one men fought loosly until 1 October.</p>
<p>Beauregard through knowing there was an end to [?]</p>
<p>indurance drew off his men in splendid order. A</p>
<p>great many persons beleive that peace is drowning upon us if</p>
<p>it is it will astonish me treamendously for I think we</p>
<p>have just began this long dreary war. Still we must</p>
<p>fight on, our lives, our homes, our [?], our slaves, depends on</p>
<p>the end of this matter. If conquered we must be driven</p>
<p>out. They propose at the north to drive us out and give</p>
<p>our lands to northerners and we must push our way the best</p>

<p>April 18th (“Battle of Shiloh” fought 5 & 6 the day of Ap
1862)</p>
<p>We have had stirring times at [?] tiney I last wrote in</p>
<p>this book. There was a battle on the 5th & 6th (sunday,
monday)</p>
<p>Two of our greatest victories, the battle of Bull run &
Shiloh were</p>
<p>fought on the sabbath. We gained a complete victory on</p>
<p>sunday On monday one men fought loosly until 1 October.</p>
<p>Beauregard through knowing there was an end to [?]</p>
<p>indurance drew off his men in splendid order. A</p>
<p>great many persons beleive that peace is drowning upon us if</p>
<p>it is it will astonish me treamendously for I think we</p>
<p>have just began this long dreary war. Still we must</p>
<p>fight on, our lives, our homes, our [?], our slaves, depends on</p>
<p>the end of this matter. If conquered we must be driven</p>
<p>out. They propose at the north to drive us out and give</p>
<p>our lands to northerners and we must push our way the best</p>

<p>March 21st 1862 Wednesday</p>
<p>Oh my dear book. what a treasure you are to me. I think</p>

<p>on my knees at the mercy seat I find comfort.</p>
<p>I seldom drop a tear. I never like too much crying but [?]</p>

<p>forth in tears, as if that sorrow if suppressed would put an</p>

<p>June 8th Saturday</p>
<p>Mr Cleghone of New Orleans preached</p>
<p>for us at Bethel this morning. His text was “For wore his
oppresing”</p>
<p>a very interesting and instructin sermon and the church was</p>
<p>full. We Seldom have so many. I have been reading “Guide to</p>
<p>the Young Desaple” (a favorite book of mine) this everything.
The subject</p>
<p>was prayer. Oh how sweet prayer is to the christians. When than
is</p>
<p>no sympathy friend my Saviour is near who can hear the faintest</p>
<p>whisper the softest sob. Oh! what a comfort prayer is. There I </p>
<p>can go and tell each want. Oh! how much I want faith. I often</p>
<p>think. “how if death came very soon could I face it without a</p>
<p>fear. Could I early his down in my Journal and I die</p>
<p>without one doubt.” Oh! hour after I <u>tremble at death</u>.
To</p>
<p>lay down and go alone into the dark clarity <u>alone</u> yes <u>alone</u>.</p>
<p>Ah coward soul! faithless unbelieving soul! can you not trust</p>
<p>your saviour. Your
tender, good, gently Saviour. Oh that I</p>
<p>could trust. without one doubt. Oh! for that strong Faith which
lays</p>
<p>hold of a crucified Saviour, and clinging to calvary <s>and to</s>
thou asin</p>
<p>death “The<s> death</s> grave where is thy sting” Oh death
where is thy</p>
<p>history.” I daily pray for faith. But how can anyone doubt
Jesus.</p>
<p>To full of having kindred and tender mercy, so compassionate</p>
<p>to all the penitent while on earth. Has he charge sonies</p>
<p>he went back to Heaven. Oh! how could do so lovely a Saviour</p>
<p>change. But I miss trust his it is all that I can do</p>
<p>Good words will only be outrighted by the bad ones so of</p></td>

<p>June 8th Saturday</p>
<p>Mr Cleghone of New Orleans preached</p>
<p>for us at Bethel this morning. His text was “For wore his
oppresing”</p>
<p>a very interesting and instructin sermon and the church was</p>
<p>full. We Seldom have so many. I have been reading “Guide to</p>
<p>the Young Desaple” (a favorite book of mine) this everything.
The subject</p>
<p>was prayer. Oh how sweet prayer is to the christians. When than
is</p>
<p>no sympathy friend my Saviour is near who can hear the faintest</p>
<p>whisper the softest sob. Oh! what a comfort prayer is. There I </p>
<p>can go and tell each want. Oh! how much I want faith. I often</p>
<p>think. “how if death came very soon could I face it without a</p>
<p>fear. Could I early his down in my Journal and I die</p>
<p>without one doubt.” Oh! hour after I tremble at death.
To</p>
<p>lay down and go alone into the dark clarity alone yes alone.</p>
<p>Ah coward soul! faithless unbelieving soul! can you not trust</p>
<p>your saviour. Your
tender, good, gently Saviour. Oh that I</p>
<p>could trust. without one doubt. Oh! for that strong Faith which
lays</p>
<p>hold of a crucified Saviour, and clinging to calvary and to
thou asin</p>
<p>death “The death grave where is thy sting” Oh death
where is thy</p>
<p>history.” I daily pray for faith. But how can anyone doubt
Jesus.</p>
<p>To full of having kindred and tender mercy, so compassionate</p>
<p>to all the penitent while on earth. Has he charge sonies</p>
<p>he went back to Heaven. Oh! how could do so lovely a Saviour</p>
<p>change. But I miss trust his it is all that I can do</p>

<p>“quite giving up the ghost of all his hopes, of “<u>ever

<p>Sunday Nov. 9. 1862.</p>
<p>Essie has been much better all to–day & I think</p>
<p>she will soon be well again. How truly thankful I</p>
<p>am for it. God has indeed been good.</p>
<p>Nov. 13 Thursday. Today poor little Bena Daniell</p>
<p>died. She had been much better so well that one</p>
<p>day they dressed her & she was carried out on the </p>
<p>gallery and stood up to get fresh air, the family </p>
<p>thinking she had been confined for so long. The air</p>
<p>would do her good. But poor little creature she was</p>
<p>not to live. (Dear little Charlie had only died three</p>
<p>or four weeks before. A [?], brighter, or</p>
<p>smarter little fellow I never saw.) God had </p>
<p>but loaned her to them for a very short time &</p>
<p>she must go: Her last words were</p>
<p>“Oh! Heavenly Father help me, help me!!”. </p>
<p>When first taken sick she said herself she would</p>
<p>“never get well.” She said “Charlie and I used to sit </p>
<p>to–gether and say “Suffer little children to come</p>
<p>unto me and forbid them not for of such</p>
<p>is the kingdom of heaven.” Is it not sad &</p>
<p>heartrending to have to give dear ones up, & we</p>
<p>who had been called on to give up our <u>dearest</u></p>
<p>one. Shall we not then “[?] with those</p>
<p>that [?].” Lord make me a deep &</p></td>
<td><p> </p>
<p>tender sympathize with my poor afflicted</p>
<p>fellow men. How cold most persons seem to be.</p>
<p>If I was <u>Mis</u> Daniells age I would go to her</p>
<p>& throw my arms around her back and <u>miss</u></p>
<p>with her. Now I cannot do it tho I have often</p>
<p>longed to do it since her Cats sorrows. O! What</p>
<p>a bitter bitter cup man has often sooner or later</p>
<p>to drink. its most bitter dreg’s must be swllowed</p>
<p>down. Said if thou hast such sorows in</p>
<p>sore for me. Oh! prepare me for them. Thy poor</p>
<p>weak child will leave on Thee & [?] who</p>
<p>trusting can hear my Savior say.</p>
<p>“The soul that our Jesus has leaved for repose</p>
<p>I <u>will not</u>. I <u>will not desert</u> to his foes</p>
<p>That soul tho all <u>hell</u> should endeavor to <u>shake</u></p>

<p>Sunday Nov. 9. 1862.</p>
<p>Essie has been much better all to–day & I think</p>
<p>she will soon be well again. How truly thankful I</p>
<p>am for it. God has indeed been good.</p>
<p>Nov. 13 Thursday. Today poor little Bena Daniell</p>
<p>died. She had been much better so well that one</p>
<p>day they dressed her & she was carried out on the </p>
<p>gallery and stood up to get fresh air, the family </p>
<p>thinking she had been confined for so long. The air</p>
<p>would do her good. But poor little creature she was</p>
<p>not to live. (Dear little Charlie had only died three</p>
<p>or four weeks before. A [?], brighter, or</p>
<p>smarter little fellow I never saw.) God had </p>
<p>but loaned her to them for a very short time &</p>
<p>she must go: Her last words were</p>
<p>“Oh! Heavenly Father help me, help me!!”. </p>
<p>When first taken sick she said herself she would</p>
<p>“never get well.” She said “Charlie and I used to sit </p>
<p>to–gether and say “Suffer little children to come</p>
<p>unto me and forbid them not for of such</p>
<p>is the kingdom of heaven.” Is it not sad &</p>
<p>heartrending to have to give dear ones up, & we</p>
<p>who had been called on to give up our dearest</p>
<p>one. Shall we not then “[?] with those</p>
<p>that [?].” Lord make me a deep &</p></td>
<td><p> </p>
<p>tender sympathize with my poor afflicted</p>
<p>fellow men. How cold most persons seem to be.</p>
<p>If I was Mis Daniells age I would go to her</p>
<p>& throw my arms around her back and miss</p>
<p>with her. Now I cannot do it tho I have often</p>
<p>longed to do it since her Cats sorrows. O! What</p>
<p>a bitter bitter cup man has often sooner or later</p>
<p>to drink. its most bitter dreg’s must be swllowed</p>
<p>down. Said if thou hast such sorows in</p>
<p>sore for me. Oh! prepare me for them. Thy poor</p>
<p>weak child will leave on Thee & [?] who</p>
<p>trusting can hear my Savior say.</p>
<p>“The soul that our Jesus has leaved for repose</p>
<p>I will not. I will not desert to his foes</p>
<p>That soul tho all hell should endeavor to shake</p>
<p>I’ll never, no never, no never forsake.”</p>
<p>Does he indeed promise this? O! there how </p>
<p>can, i so often forget & mander from him.</p>
<p>Oh! Saviour bring thy mandering child home.</p>

<p>Jan 11th 1863. Tuesday the anniversary of dear Papa’s</p>

<p>Oh! we did have so much fun today at school. The calvary</p>
<p>came after Mr Baird. As soon as they appeared we all jumped</p>

<p>and opened it and went out. The girls went to the window. all
the boys</p>
<p>went out to the door. Then Mr B. went out to them &</p>
<p>found a long list of his troubles, and trials, complaints</p>

<p>told them to take him, in would lend him a house.</p>
<p>After school in Recess we teased Mr B awfully, and I laughed

<p>I am for a brother. I thought of his poor mother when</p>
<p>she heard it. her frantic grief. her irreparable soul. Then I</p>
<p>thought of Willie. I pictured him as left lying out on the</p>
<p>Dismal bloody battle field wounded, dying, or dead. and</p>
<p>I said O! Lord how long!! But Tears can never bring him back.</p>

Journal, Frances A. Murdoch, 1861-1863 (Ms2009-132)
Subject
The topic of the resource
Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
A journal maintained by Frances A. 'Fannie' Murdoch, a young woman living on a Mississippi plantation during the Civil War. Containing approximately 90 pages, the journal commences with an entry dated May 29, 1861. The journal is largely introspective in nature, as Murdoch dwells on personal feelings, focusing heavily on her religious beliefs. She often questions her worthiness and chastises herself for sins, frequently mentioning her quick temper. At the same time, Murdoch takes pride in the evening Bible studies she conducts with the plantation's slaves. Murdoch also describes the weather and often refers to siblings Willie, Jonnie and Sallie, as well as various relatives, servants and neighbors.
As the Civil War commences, Murdoch very briefly mentions reports from Harpers Ferry and Philippi, Virginia. After the Battle of Manassas, her entries focus more on war rumors and news. She mentions a personal telegram received by acquaintances from President Davis, relaying news of the Confederate victory at Manassas, and Davis' proclamation for a day of prayer and fasting.
On April 18, 1862, Murdoch expresses thanks for what she considers a Confederate victory at Shiloh, while at the same time disagreeing with those who believe the war's end may soon be drawing near. '...I think we have just begun this long dreary war,' she writes. 'Still we must fight on, our lives, our homes, our lands, our slaves, depend on the end of this matter.' As the war progresses, she becomes ever less hopeful of victory and mentions a prophecy that the war will last four years and result in the reunification of the states. She relays secondhand but somewhat lengthy descriptions of a battle between the Natchez militia and a Union gunboat, the death of Colonel Stuart Wilkins Fisk at the Battle of Murfreesboro, and the plundering of Bruinsburg by Union soldiers. Elsewhere, she reports the surrenders of New Orleans and Vicksburg.
On a few occasions, Murdoch expresses her fear of a slave insurrection but feels confident that slaves Ben or Henry would save her and brother Jonnie, 'as they say they like us so much.' Elsewhere, Murdoch deplores the torture used on Natchez slaves to elicit information about rumored plans for an uprising. On May 3, 1863, she notes that many of the family's slaves have departed, averring that they had forgotten how well they were treated by the family and comparing them to a fly being lured by a spider--the lure in this case being the promise of eleven dollars a month. Also on this date, Murdoch notes that the carriage horses are all gone, and she feels in danger of being 'outraged and insulted at any time.' After intermittent entries made during the next several months, the journal ends on October 12, 1863.
Frances A. 'Fannie' Murdoch was born in Mississippi around 1847. Her father, John Murdoch (1813-1861) had been born in Louisiana, attended Yale University (class of 1834), and in 1840 married Frances Louisa Bristol (1819-1875), daughter of a New Haven, Connecticut family. The Murdochs later resided at Cane Mount, their cotton plantation near Rodney (Jefferson County), Mississippi. Fannie was one of eight children and was schooled by private tutors at home with her siblings before briefly attending Professor Baird's school from December 1862 until April 1863. No further information about Fannie Murdoch could be found.

Description
An account of the resource
The diary of William J. Pittenger, a soldier serving in the 93rd Illinois Infantry and the U. S. Army Signal Corps during the Civil War. The diary's entries span the first half of 1863 through 1864 and touch on such matters as camp life, the U. S. Army's advance down the Mississippi River, and the siege of Vicksburg. (Pittenger made no entries for most of March 1863, as he was bedridden with smallpox). The diary also contains names and addresses of Pittenger's comrades, records of financial transactions, and a list of soldiers from Co. D, 93rd Illinois Infantry killed at Champion Hill.
William J. Pittenger, son of Abraham and Elizabeth Gladfelter Pittenger, was born in Ohio in 1838. While working as a Missouri schoolteacher in 1862, Pittenger enlisted in Company D of the 93rd Illinois Infantry. In February 1863, he was assigned to the U. S. Army Signal Corps. Pittenger contracted small pox one month later but resumed duties in April and participated in the siege of Vicksburg and, later, in Sherman's march to the sea. He mustered out with his regiment in June, 1865. In 1867, Pittenger married Ella Shafer (1850-1899); the couple would have five children. In 1879, the Pittengers moved from Illinois to Wichita, Kansas, where William Pittenger became a prominent farmer. A member of the I. O. O. F., Pittenger served as a member of the local school board and as a township trustee. He died in 1896, and is buried in Pleasant Ridge Cemetery, Sedgwick County, Kansas.

Diary, Charles O. Poland, 1864 (Ms2008-013)
Subject
The topic of the resource
Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
This is the diary of Charles O. Poland, a private in Company B, 142nd Ohio Infantry (National Guard) during the Civil War, was a resident of Knox County, Ohio. Born around 1836, he was the husband of Angeline Disney (daughter of William A. and Mary Jane Lampson Disney) and the father of several children. Census records indicate that Poland was a farmer; documents within this collection indicate that Poland was also certified to teach in Morrow and Knox counties prior to the war. The 142nd Ohio National Guard was organized at Camp Chase, Ohio and mustered into service for 100 days on May 12, 1864. On May 14, the regiment proceeded to Martinsburg, West Virginia, where it drilled until May 19, when ordered to Fort Lyon, Virginia, from which it served guard duty in the Washington D. C. area. On June 5, the regiment was ordered to the front and arrived on June 9 at White House Landing, Virginia, where it was dispatched to guard a supply train through the Wilderness to Cold Harbor. From there, the 142nd proceeded to Point of Rocks, about five miles from Petersburg, Virginia. The regiment participated in the early siege of Petersburg through August 19, when it was ordered back to Washington, D.C., thence to Camp Chase, where it was mustered out on September 2, 1864. The diary's entries commence on June 15, 1864, with Knox already in the rifle pits before Petersburg. He writes of being detailed to destroy Confederate breastworks, erect fortifications, and fell trees as battles raged nearby. Elsewhere he mentions having seen generals Grant and Burnside, the gunboats on the James River, the discovery of a cache of buried silver and gold by a New York regiment while hunting for fishing worms, and the trading of hardtack for tobacco between the lines. Throughout the diary, Poland notes many days on picket, and the state of the fighting around Petersburg. On July 20, Poland developed a fever, and the final four entries, concluding with July 31, are devoted to the condition of his health. Also within the diary are a few entries regarding pre- and post-war personal financial transactions.

Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
The diary of Jacob Wallace Smith, a Union sharpshooter with the 7th Company, 1st Battalion, New York Sharpshooters, in the Northern Virginia region.The first few pages of the diary include a brief history of his enlistment. The early entries describe his unit's travels around Alexandria and Northern Virginia. The majority of the entries detail his experiences in and around Culpepper from December 1863 to May 1864. He talks about camp life, drills, daily activities, letters from home, and playing baseball in camp. Smiley's last complete entry was on May 4, 1864, when the regiment moved from Culpepper toward Wilderness. May 5th includes a date and location, but no entry. Smiley was killed in action at the Wilderness later that day.
Tucked inside the diary is a CDV of Smiley and his wife, Melissa, probably taken before Jacob was drafted.

Diary, Merritt Hager Smith, 1863 (Ms2008-037)
Subject
The topic of the resource
Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
The Civil War diary of Private Merritt Hager Smith of Company G, 97th New York Infantry, a member of the regimental band. The diary entries span the entire year of 1863. The first entry finds Smith receiving orders to proceed to Belle Plain Landing, Virginia to assist Lt. Louis Rowan, the regiment's quartermaster. Smith describes his work, the relative comfort in which he lives, recreation, the weather, homesickness, prayer meetings, sutlers, and makes many references to frequent and excessive drinking by various officers. Smith mentions attending Lincoln's grand review of the 1st Army Corps on April 9. Later that month, the regiment began marching northwestward, frequently changing camp, and Smith writes of the difficulty in marching and the conditions of the various camps. On July 1, the regiment arrived in the Gettysburg, Pennsylvania area. Smith describes the area, provides a brief synopsis of the news he has heard from the battle and mentions speaking with a group of Confederate prisoners. As the army again moves to camps southeastward, Smith notes the many towns and villages through which they pass. He writes of news received via newspaper and word-of-mouth but makes few references to specific battles; nor does he make any significant mention of the regimental band's activities. A history of the 97th New York includes in its roster a Private Merritt A. Smith, who enlisted in Boonville, New York on December 16, 1861 at age 19. According to his diary, Smith was born June 28, 1842. Census records indicate that he was the son of Julia Smith of Turin (Lewis County), New York. Smith notes himself a member of the regimental brass band, and Civil War rosters include a Merritt H. Smith who served as a second class musician in the band of the 1st Brigade, 2nd Division, 3rd/1st Army Corps. No further information about Smith could be found.
The 97th New York Infantry (also known as the Conkling Rifles) was organized in 1861 with men recruited from Herkimer, Lewis and Oneida counties. It was mustered into U. S. service on February 18, 1862, under command of Colonel Charles Wheelock. The regiment saw its first action at Cedar Mountain on August 9. Among the battles in which it fought were Second Bull Run, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, The Wilderness, Petersburg, and Appomattox Courthouse. The 97th New York was mustered out of service on July 18, 1865 near Washington, D.C.

Subject
The topic of the resource
Civil War
Description
An account of the resource
Enoch Stephens's diary from his time in the 5th NY Veteran Volunteers from January 1st, 1865 to December 26th, 1865. Most entries describe the weather and the time of daily drills and dress parades, but the diary also documents such events as the fall of Richmond, the surrender of General Robert E. Lee, the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, Stephens' time guarding the Lincoln Conspirators and witnessing the executions, and the paying off of several regiments.
Enoch Stephens (born ~1835) enlisted on June 30th, 1861 in Brooklyn, New York as a 1st Sergeant. During his time in the military, Stephens seems to have participated in the 84th Regiment, New York Infantry, the 5th Regiment, New York Veteran Infantry, and the 4th Regiment, US Veteran Volunteer Infantry. Prior to 1865 he was promoted to major.

Description
An account of the resource
Diary written by Marcus B. Warner in 1864. The diary is written in a green Allings & Cory pocket diary. In addition to describing his life as a soldier, Warner also chronicles his previous civilian life and the Union army recruitment process. Writing as a civilian, his common discussion topics include the weather, his daily schedule, fluctuating gold prices, local and national politics and elections, war news, and local community and church events. A notable entry on August 6th gives insight to his political sentiments:
"The Copper Heads are getting to be quite bold they are spewing out their venomous treason against the Government at times when I hear them talk it almost makes my blood boil with rage I fairly hate the sight of them and there is many those who we would expect better things from." (entry from August 6, 1864)
After Marcus mustered into service in September of 1864, his descriptions shift to daily camp life and more in-depth war news that is sometimes accompanied by newspaper clippings. A humorous entry on October 4th details a false alarm around camp, in which a guard mistook a lone dog for an enemy attack. Warner also provides considerable insight into the religious life of a Union soldier. On September 11th, he bears witness to a mass group conversion:
"I saw a gathering off at one side [....] they were holding a prayer or speaking meeting there was an opening in the center where those who wished steped fow- erd and confessed their and decla ired themselves on the side of the Lord it was very good meeting the spirit as God was there motivation was then given to those who wished religion to step forward, some twenty persons stepped forward praying was then offered and meeting adjourned until eve" (entry from September 11, 1864)
Warner also goes in depth about the army.
