Monday. No orders to move have yet come, & we are still encamped where we stopped Saturday night. No salt meat of any kind has been issued to the men for several days & but short rations of fresh, but the boys have. Made up the deficiency in the last by “detailing” swine in the neighborhood of the city. Spent most of the day in reading. In afternoon had a Reg. inspection of arms & ammunition, & a dress parade at 5 ½ o’clock.
