Scope and Contents

Headed "Morning Report of Co 'C' 48 NC Regt". The table records the company's strength on a daily basis, after each morning roll call. Totals are entered, grade by grade, for soldiers who are present (whether "for duty", "sick", "in arrest", etc.) or absent ("detached service", "with leave", "without leave"). Also indicated, under "remarks", are casualties, deaths, desertions, and so on. The report was maintained by 1st Sgt. Robert R. Leonard, whose signature accompanies each day's entries (with the counter-signature, on occasion, of an officer). Full entries appear for 30 days, between 8 October and 8 November 1864. During this time the 48th North Carolina was attached to John R. Cooke's Brigade, Heth's Division, 3rd Corps, Army of Northern Virginia, and was in the lines at Petersburg.
