� 22 February Sunday 9 Camp Franklin. Va.

Was officer of the guard yesterday and will soon be relieved. Charlie and Lieut. Stevens came down to see me here at my tent, and we had a fine time talking. Paradis translated for me "Francais peuple"! "Peuples braves!" He is a corporal now.

Intelligence by the "Clipper" that Fort Henry had been captured by the gun boats of Captain Porter, after a desperate resistance. Two General made prisoners with many other officers. Another Union victory. Thus we push on to triumphs that ensure final and complete success.

When will This [stricken] rebellion be overcome? Soon I believe.
