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

November 13 to 16, 1864

Sunday, Nov. 13—Army returns to Edinburg. I rest and dine at Mrs. Hoover’s. I surely needed rest after the fatigue and excitement of the last day and night.

Nov. 14—Return to old camp three miles north of New Market.

Nov. 15—In camp.

Nov. 16—Worship with my men Ride by P’s. Division. Dine with Chaplain Carson at Black’s Hospital. Visit Foote and others. Ride late in the night and sleep with Rev. H. M. Brearley who was my classmate many years, graduated with me in 1866 at University of N. C., and is now Chaplain of a S. C. Regiment in Lee’s Army.
