Following the American Civil War Sesquicentennial with day by day writings of the time, currently 1863.

Monday, June 27th.

Captain Eddy of Company B resigned to-day, and I would resign also were it not for the fact that I induced so many men to enlist in the battalion or the Eleventh Heavy Artillery, which was consolidated with the Fourth, and it would seem like deserting those men, instead of standing by them as I am in honor bound to do, though I do not now command the company which I recruited. As expected, details from the battalion were sent out on picket in the afternoon.
