Excerpt from The Citizen-Soldier: Or Memoirs of a Volunteer

Provisions outside of camp are very scarce. I took breakfast with a farmer this morning, and can say truly that I have eaten much better meals in my life. We had coffee without sugar, short-cake without but ter, and a little salt pork, exceedingly fat. I asked him what the charge was, and he said Ninepence, which means one shilling. I rejoiced his old soul by giving him two shillings.
