Isaac Lyman Taylor: June 14, 1863

After resting & taking a lunch we resume our march & at 2 P.M. cross Aquia Creek and encamp about a mile or two beyond. It has been very warm & many cases of "sun-stroke" occur. I don't recolect of ever seeing so many "sun-struck" and "fagged out" on a march. I stand the march "first rate" Among those "fagged out" are many officers.

—Isaac Lyman Taylor, Company E, First Minnesota Volunteer Infantry.
