[November 15th.] Every man not needed for other duty was set to work building log huts, and in three days’ time our division at least was snugly quartered. The huts were built to hold four men, covered with shelter tents, and provided with mud and wood fireplaces and chimneys. This is the second winter we have built log huts, and the men are now completely au fait in their construction.
