In taking up the thread of Captain George A. Thayer sadmirable chapter upon the Chancellorsville campaign, we find the regiment baling out their old log pens, on a dark night, in the rain. They had stripped the canvas roofs before starting for Chancellorsville. The return to a deserted camp, even in fine weather, flushed with victory, is not agreeable. The failure of Chancellorsville made the discomforts of this memorable night harder to bear, and it seemed very much like some of the worst experiences of the Mud campaign. Company Dpursued their work with vigor, and sang with the broadest sarcasm Home A gain. This had rather an enlivening effect upon some of the other companies, who, up to this time, had been very silent. Daylight relieved us all; and, with sunshine and regimental police, the place soon looked as if nothing had happened, except for the late absentees, some of whom would return when their wounds permitted; but others would never again draw their swords under the old battle-flag. The scholarly Fitzgerald, who died so bravely, was the only officer of ours killed at Chancellorsville. It was at this very camp, about a month before, that the gallant and lamented Colonel Shaw, then a captain in our regiment, left us to organize and command that fated battalion, the Fiftyfourth Colored Massachusetts. Here, we again formed a mess with the officers of the Third Wisconsin ;and our former caterer, Charley Johnson, and his colored staff, managed the table dhbte.
