August 26th Bridgeport, Alabama
Returned to my company after five months service in Hosp. Found the boys all right. Nothing of interest today.
The Rebs are in plain sight across the river but there does not seem to be a disposition on either side to attack.
Weather cool and fine.
Sept. 6, 1863:
In camp near Trenton Georgia the first troops that have invaded Georgia soil. Expect to go either to Rome or Chatanooga. Our cavalry had a skirmish yesterday.
Saturday Sept. l9th:
Started on our march about 9 o'clock. Marched forward about seven miles to reinforce Woods division. We were drawn up of battle our company sent out as skirmishers with H & G. about one mile when we discovered our brigade coming. We fell in stacked arms but no enemy came so we went further to our left. Marched double quick most of the time. Soon we came to where the enemy were drawn up in line. We pitched in then being in advance. We drove them a short time when they rallied gave us fits. I soon fell being hit in the left limb at the knee and here I am among the wounded. My wound is doing well.
