Headed "Morning Report of Co 'C' 48th N. C. Troops". 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 (and who also signed the report as commanding officer from 26 March). Full entries appear for 23 days, from 8 to 30 March 1865, inclusive. 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. Despite additional space the daily reports end on 30 March, with the abandonment of Petersburg.
