Skirmishers do not fire in our front, but a few sharp shooters behind the line. Keep picking away at those who expose themselves. We have rather a good position here, an open field right before us with the Johnnies at 150 and 500 yds from us. 13" Cleaned up camp. An armistice along the front of our brigade only, there being a continual fire on both right & left. Deserters come in every day.
