29 - 31 Jan 1863

Jan 29 - Feel better.  Reading Rowland Hill's life with much interest.  A church of England Spurgeon A flaming fire.  P.m. to hospital.  Prayers here in evening.  Band playing below.

Jan 30 - Cold better.  Wrote on sermon.  Went to hospital and rather disappointed in getting no better.  Mr. Gray called on me and Col.

Jan 31 - Saturday.  Studied some.  Feel quite well.  A good long letter from mother at noon.  Cam[paign] at Memphis with 95th.  P.m. rain began.

This month has passed quickly away though at times longing for my home.  I have been at work and have enjoyed considerable satisfaction in it.  The war still rages and the land mourns.  May the Lord be merciful to our distressed country.
