Experience of a Confederate Chaplain—Rev. A. D. Betts, 30th N. C. Regiment
    

Wash Day—Half naked men washing and drying clothes. Sad sight!

Nov. 15—I walk out to study my Bible. Wash day in 2nd Regiment. Bank of branch lined some distance with men half naked, some washing pants and drawers, others washing shirts and some picking their clothing. Some half naked holding their wet clothes to the fire to dry. Sad sight! Would make wives, mothers and sisters weep.
