June, Sunday 22, 1862

Strassburg.

Morning: Nine o'clock regimental inspection of arms, afterwards churchparade.

Afternoon: I take a bath.

At night light rain.

Tailer (sic) Wilhelm has sewn our tent covers (one and one half) together.

After we return and the company erects its stakes we find that by the second stake it apparently was done very carelessly, same collapses, one gun breaks while all the others fall on top and the stocks break.

The uncle of De Leyer, who is a wholesale liquor dealer in New York now with the depot in Winchester, Virginia, arrives to make inquiries about his nephew, who went looking for Doctor Idler who is either in New Creek or Cumberland.
