a stiff uper lip as he was capable of doing without any sense, so I gave it up, as it was to be a temporary affair and we were liable to return to the regt at any time. Under these sircumstances I gave it up. A master shell was thrown from the rebel battery droping on a mans shoulder (as he set in his works with five or six of his comrades eating his dinner) and killed him instantly. He fell down over the hole that the shell made in the ground, then the shell exploded and tore him to fragments. I see him after they had gathered up the pieces and placed them on a stretcher for burial. His arms, legs, and head was all that was found of him.
18th A fair day and quiet along the line.
19 It comensed earley in the morning to rain and continued all day.
20th Cleared of about eight o'clock A.M. We moved out on to the front line of battle at five o'clock in the evening.
21st A fair day and quite cold. Firing in front of the 9th Corps.
