Diary of a Young Officer–Josiah Marshall Favill (57th New York Infantry)

November 29th. Marched early this morning via Robertson’s tavern to the plank road leading to Orange court house, across which the division formed in line of battle; a little skirmishing followed, but did not amount to anything.
