War diary and letters of Stephen Minot Weld

Wednesday, November 2. — Baker, our former waiter, was tried by the provost marshal and found guilty of stealing. Wrote to the postmaster of Charleston for my draft of £5. Received a letter from Mr. Garesché. He said he had been unable to find the address I wanted. Had a chilly rainy day. Sent yesterday for the Savannah Republican. There was an order in the paper making Captain Senn commandant of the post, during the illness of Major Greene.
