 9/6/1862 - **14th New Jersey Infantry**. "We are very pleasantly located a mile southeast of Elysville in a beautiful orchard...We are camped in an apple orchard and a splendid position it is. The water is excellent. The trees are loaded down with fruit and we are in an enemy country and on a Secesh farm. The owners name is Dorcey and he is rank Secesh.
