1862 May 21

Reveille was blown at five A.M
harnessed and packed up, and by seven
were again in motion. At three P.M.
after a long and very fatiguing march, we
halted and encamped at Cold Harbor,
some seven miles from Richmond and
two from the Chicahominy. We are expecting
a battle in a very few days. Pleasant
and very warm.
