Wilmor reports that Doctor Whitssell is dead and some of the men "are rejoicing at his death" since he "made fun of" the sick and told them they were "playing off." The Colonel has given orders to reform the ten companies into six, putting Company A and Wilmor with Company F but he hopes this will not come to pass. Wilmor wants to know "how the war fever is an[d] how the peoples pulse beats in the north on the war."
