Downing’s Civil War Diary.–Alexander G. Downing.

Tuesday, 19th–We received orders that two companies are to go out every three days about four miles east of the camp, to guard the railroad at the deep cut. On the third day they are to be relieved by two other companies from the regiment. It is a dangerous place to be on picket.
