Strassburg.
Marching order for eight o'clock, it is said to Middletown. We start marching about ten o'clock and arrive in Strassburg about three o'clock where we bivouac on a hill south of Strassburg. Siebert from Company C who had no luck with his discharge arrives here to join us again.
Landmann's wagon is here.
I take cocoa for $1 - two cups 1/2 lbs. without him having change. (25 for Lieutenant Letenda.)
Payment of salarys in Mount Jackson.
Bluehmel and Feierabend deb. $1 - Weinmann for tea. There is great need here since almost only five dollar bills are in existence in the regiment and one cannot buy without change. It is said that we will be united with Sigel in Front Royal moreover we are to be reorganized. Letter from Vollbracht who asks for his descriptive list.
I receive my commission as First Lieutenant from Albany.
