Complete diary for the year 1864. The daily entries describe Evans' duties filing provision returns, drawing rations, supplies, and ammunitions, etc., gives accounts of camp life, the wounded and fallen in battles, Confederate prisoners, deserters, and guerillas, military operations, news (including a note about Santiago fire of Dec. 1863), and the recruitment in Pittsburgh, and follows Franz Siegel and David Hunter in Shenandoah Valley in the spring and summer of 1864. The accounts of the hospitals are rather sketchy, on the account of his wounded arm; Evans did mention a Christmas dinner and concert organized by Sanitary and Christian Commissions.
