February. Thursday 27, 1862

On watch with Lieutenant Matthesins, Company C.

Officer's Meeting.

Immediate marching orders. To be ready at a moment's notice.

Blen Bank address submitted, however their signature was refused owing to regulations.

Company C is getting again Remington rifles, since the necessary tools for the Enfield rifles can not be obtained.

Lieutenant Hoefer orders his sabre. Captain Doebke receives same as present from his company.

Weather pleasant with a cold dry wind.

I receive regards through Postmaster Ruf from a member of the Berlin Craftsmen Guild: Kallenbach Lieutenant in the 52nd Regiment N.Y.V. Sumners-Division.

Sergeant Muller intends to take leave to go to New York (Illness)

I am giving him the photographs of our Officers and also my opera glasses from Paris to be repaired.

Corporal Krieger advanced to Sergeant.  Acting Sergeant Clehsin feels slighted.
