Civil War Diary of Charles H. Lynch, 18th Conn. Vol's.

January 25th. All quiet since the last date. I am in the best of health, ready for duty at any time, and for any call. The general health of the regiment at this time is good. Company A ordered to Harper’s Ferry for provost duty under command of Lieutenant Kerr. Companies D and I to Duffield Station on the Baltimore & Ohio R. R., west of Harper’s Ferry. Their quarters are in block houses, bullet proof, about seven miles from our camp. Guard the railroad.
