Page 67: March 25 Review of the 1st. Corps d’armee took place today. Genl. Slocum was absent. Col. Bartlett took command of Brigade. Russell L.L.D. of London Times notoriety was there. I noticed McClellan although he did not review the troops. Got an excellent letter from Lizzie this morning, containing another from Mrs. E. P. Shailer. They are pleased with my promotion. Lizzie is going to surprise me with something in the Transcript. Good. Got a fine letter from Edward this evening, too. |
