May 22d we marched four miles starting at 4 a. M. And went into camp between the levee and river at Morganza Bend, on the west bank of the Mis- sissippi fifty-one miles above Baton Rouge. As we came in sight of the river, tired and footsore though we were, the men broke out in loud cheers, and as soon as camp was made enjoyed a bath in its cool and refreshing waters. We here received a mail, the first for many days, and several recruits reported to the regiment. May 23d, Sergeant Ed- ward Duffy..., Company I, was promoted First-Lieutenant Company A. May 24th we had a slight shower which only served to intensify the heat. May 29th orders were re- ceived to be in readiness to move at a moment's notice, it being rumored that Taylor's forces had crossed the Atchaf- alaya and were about to attack Plaquemine just below Baton Rouge, but the report proved false and the orders were rescinded. June ist Colonel Molineux, who was quite ill, went to New Orleans. June 2d Lieutenant- Colonel Edward L. Gaul was discharged.
