Fine day. Co. & Bat'ion drill as usual Gen. David Hunter's letter to Jeff Davis threatening retaliation in case Negro soldiersof "Department of the South" ar[e] executed, is quite a spicy affair.
—Isaac Lyman Taylor, Company E, First Minnesota Volunteer Infantry

Van Buren Oldham: June 3, 1864
A change of surg[eon] this morning in our ward. The surg[eon] made a very close examination of my lungs but did not express an opinion. He prescribed quinine and something else. The food here at the convalescent table is very bad so that I have eat but little until today when the surg[eon] placed me on the sick list and gave me something better to eat. Quite a number of men were sent off to their [commands] this morning. Some went who came with me. In my room is a man with syphilis, 2 wounded, one sick. We are very comfortably situated. More sick and wounded arrived during the evening. Nothing of interest from the front.
—Martin Van Buren Oldham, Company G, 9th Tennessee Infantry ("The Hickory Blues") (diary)
