Fairfax c - h Virginia
West wind and rain the entire day and the following night. We cannot start anything. We are blocking up our tent in the rear and on the side. A huge oak tree has been felled and large logs have been packed onto the watchfire. A Lieutenant finds one pair of sheepskins which Wachtmann takes one to fill his breadsack with gorgeous wool. The other one, a lambskin I wash and dress to use it for a fur piece.
FRESH MEAT
During night we again have rain which especially comes through the roof of my tent. More than half of the Regiment went into Fairfax to sleep in the houses with quiet permission.
Company Watch. Searles Officer of the Guard.
One Corporal and three men leave their posts at twelve o'clock on account of the rain. The Guard Round finds nobody there. Hope without further consequences.
Who replaces Captain Bickelhaupt for Company H? Herl? Spangenberg? or Dros?
