Eugene Goodman: May 31, 1864
Eugene Goodwin was a Union soldier in the American Civil War.
Today is our ration day. We issued 10 days rations. We also issued our ration of Whiskey. There were two of our men prety tipsy. They drank to mutch. Today it is reported that the reble Forest (Nathan Bedford Forrest) is out here only 10 miles and is (unidentified words) under a flag of truce for to exchange of prisiners. But we have none here. They only want to get some back out of here to get information of our fortification but I guess we are smart enough for them not to let none out.
