3 June 1862

Tuesday, 3d Pleasant. E.I.R.B. Zechariah & Malachi. I finished reading the Bible through to day. I sent 5 dols. to my sister Evaline and also Loretta. To day was some what gloomy to me. No news about the war. We had dress parade this eve. I finished reading the Bible through by course to day for the first time in my life. I had some serious meditations to day and really enjoyed myself morally though seemingly quite gloomy around. I wish I could see my folks, but cannot.
