A fair lively day. The regt. inspected & mustered
for paying off. a hot tiresome job -- Lt. Penrose who
inspected us - dined with us also Capt. Champion &
his Lieuts -- Called meetg. of Ch. committee in mess
Tent -- tonight every man but one present -- he was on
guard -- very harmonious -- resolved on communion
once a month, an[d] prayer meetg; by co. once a week
Sunday Schools -- form of Ch adminis. &c &c
After meetg. a soldier came to show me his pastors
letter & then his sweetheart's & her likeness --
As I was shutting my tent for night a soldier
seemed lingering outside -- I asked him in -- found
him seeking Christ counseled & prayed with him
he appeared earnest -- solemn & tender. May he find
the Lamb of God -- is sweet moonlight night.
Such cases as this are the most important & delightful I have.
Lt. George or James W. Penrose of the 15th New Jersey?
Capt. Somers T. Champion of the 25th New Jersey
