[from the diary of Jesse Calvin Spaulding of Co. F., 25th Massachusetts]
Sunday
Feb 8
Went out on inspection, to church this fore-
noon to hear Mr James who preached from the
words "Cast thy burden on the Lord." This afternoon
heard Mr Stone preach on Esau selling his birthright
and I enjoyed the sermon very much indeed. This
evening we had a prayer meeting in Proctors tent, a
very good one, and may God bless its influence on
the company. Dr Whitney took charge of it, and George
and Holman prayed and I made a few remarks, and
prayed and God seemed to be near us. I enjoyed it
much. Dick Collins came into our tent and we talked
with him sometime.
