July 12-18
At church and hear Mr. William Nelson .... Rainy weather and bad news. Such sad accounts of the slaughter of our poor men in Pennsylvania .... On Saturday we hear General Lee has crossed the Potomac and is again on Virginia soil with his Army. About ten o'clock Saturday night Dave comes in-brings two other soldiers with him. We are all real glad to see Dave once more. He gives us some hope of George Geiger, but thinks Peter Minor and Bennet Taylor are certainly dead.
