War diary and letters of Stephen Minot Weld

July 28. — Went this morning to the 2d Massachusetts and saw Bill Perkins, George Thompson, and Francis. From there I went to General Greene’s headquarters, and saw Charley Horton.[1] Went to Gordon’s division of the Twelfth Corps, and saw Gray, Motley, and Scott.[2] When I came back, I found that the general had gone to Rappahannock Station. Nothing new. Weather showery in the afternoon.
