Brooks Station,Va.
March 13, 1863
Dear Parents;
You see we are at the camp at Brooks Station yet. We have just come off from a review
by Gen. Green [sic]. The rest of our brigade is stationed down near the old camp. The review
took place on the flat in front of the old camp. We had to march down the railroad track
and back again. We had to carry our knapsacks and equipment so it was quite a tramp for
us.
The weather down here has been very soft for the past 10 days. It has rained nearly
every day since Mr. Champlain left, but last night and today it has been pretty cold.
We have just got our tent logged up. We had to carry the poles about a half mile. All
of the tents in the regiment are logged up now so we can all expect marching orders in a
few days.
