Diary of Alexander G. Downing; Company E, Eleventh Iowa Infantry
    

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

Sunday, 30th–We left Oak Ridge and covering but ten miles went into bivouac on the banks of Heff river. Some of the men on account of the bad water and climate are suffering with the chills and fever. The boys were raiding all the sweet potato patches they found along the way, today.
