Diary Entry April 5th, 1862 We have just arrived at the Pittsburgh Landing near the Tennessee River. The on the way the weather was tough coming from Fort Donelson and Fort Henry, where we won with the command of US. Grant, especially since everyone threw away their coats because it was too hot and heavy to carry. Many have already died from the freezing weather, and they few that remain are struggling to get at least some cover from this bizarre coldness. I think I would have already died if I wouldn’t have kept my coat, but I also hear that many coats get stolen from others that were not very smart. We started to count the soldiers that were left, and General Grant informed us that we would have company from General Law Wallace troops too. Some of us wanted to make a schedule for guarding, but we were told not to. Apparently, the South is too beat down and one of the Generals doesn’t think it is necessary. I think he has too much confidence, but I can’t disobey orders. I better head off to sleep; we have to get moving south again tomorrow. Hopefully no more troops die of the coldness we are suffering.
