War diary and letters of Stephen Minot Weld

June 2.— Rode down to see Henry Dalton this morning. On my way I stopped at headquarters of the Army of the Potomac, and saw Oliver and Russell, and rode down with them to General Graham’s, where Dalton is. I took dinner there and spent the day. Received a box of very nice French candy from Hannah, which Dalton brought on. After leaving him, I rode over to the Engineer Brigade and found Captain Clapp away. Rode on and caught up with him on his way to headquarters. He and Captain Strang came over to see me. Day windy and pleasant.
