Description
Back from a leave of absence, Marshall suggests that a mutual acquaintance apply for a Clerk position with the Brigade Commissary, Captain Joshua Van Briner. Marshall has been offered and turned down an appointment to be Acting Judge Advocate on General Jefferson C. Davis's staff, a position that would remove him from the regiment and the line of promotion. He predicts his corps will be attacking nearby Confederate forces soon.
