1864—W1nter Quarters, Dalton, Ga.

Monday, 10th.—Debating society turned into “Court Martial” and tried R. H. Fox for encouraging R. L. Harris to desert. After some loud speaking on both sides, the decision was: “Mr. Fox is guilty of the charge; the Court do therefore sentence R. H. Fox to be shot—with a tow wad.” For the next several nights, debates were kept up.
