Cedar Creek Friday Oct. 14" 1864. 
Marched and countermarched all last night general change of position - lay on our arms all night - at 12 M. all the troops returned to their old position here, rebs have disappeared. 
Saturday 15" 
Fell in line of battle at daylight - broke ranks one hour afterwards - not a shot heard in front weather has moderated - men are tired of campaigning for the season, and wish to enter into quarters. 
Sunday 16" 
Beautiful day, commenced fortifying last night still at work today. An occasional shot heard in front. Our Chaplain preached to us today. On the 13" gold in N.Y. 204.
 Monday 17" 
Had frost last night - day warm and beautiful. Nothing stirring in front. Men healthy. 
Tuesday 18" 
Had frost last night - drill today - dress parade in the evening, day warm and beautiful - health good - men in good spirits - but do not like our position - too easily flanked, and the ground is so much lower than it is on the opposite side of the creek, where the rebs could plant their guns and shell our camps.
