May 4.—Mr. A. W. Davis died yesterday. He was a member of the Twenty-fifth Alabama Regiment; was sick a long time, and died perfectly happy.
Mr. McCullough also died yesterday of consumption. He was here a long time, and bore his sufferings with a great deal of fortitude. He died a Christian—he has no relations except a brother and sister, who live in Hardin County, Kentucky. He requested me to see that his captain got his silver watch and money, and have them sent to his brother and sister. He was a member of the Sixth Kentucky Regiment. Some time ago I sent a message to some of the officers from that regiment about him, and they immediately called and kindly offered to assist him in any way.
We are still very busy. We have almost every thing to buy ourselves. We pay two dollars per gallon for sweet milk; one dollar for buttermilk; eggs, one dollar per dozen; butter, one fifty per pound; coffee, five dollars.
