Old Vallandigham did not meet with a very warm reception from the Secesh. I am inclined to believe that Grant has got himself into trouble. No news from there today.
Sunday June 28th:
I have not written for so long I feel ashamed but as there has been nothing of interest I did not feel like writing, but tonight I feel that I must write as there is something worth writing. Our army has advanced and has fought the enemy and have gained a decided advantage. I understand that our left occupies Shelbyville and our left wing is near Tullahoma.
I am in hospital No. 1 as ward master. Have worked two nights and one day without sleep and tonight am on duty today. Can hardly keep awake. We have 250 wounded some have died. The battle is still going on and God knows I hope our side will whip thunder out of the Rebs.
