War diary and letters of Stephen Minot Weld

Sunday, March 27. — It cleared off last night, and to-clay we enjoyed the most delightful weather. It is just a week to-day since we left Readville. Lieutenant Galucia went out to-day with the patrol, but did not catch any one. Wrote Sergeant Ford in regard to deserters. Had dress-parade for the first time since leaving Readville. During the night six men deserted, five from H Company and one from C Company.
