March, Monday, 23, 1863. Rainy & wet?. Rec'd a letter from Sister Sarah & answered it-a very dull day. Nothing doing any where-all quiet-no news. Read unclear Feshis? but the unclear of the day was idled away. Davis goes up to Memphis in the Continental. Genl McPherson & Logan are below. Tuesday, 24. Cool & unpleasant-heavy thunderstorm last night. Fire again and the Methodist church was burned & several other buildings. Genl McPherson returned again from below. Learned of a fight on the Tallehatchie in which river boat unclear was mostly severly handled X $1__
