  • Content: This diary entry is reflected in the section of November Boughs (1888) called "Last of the War Cases." The entry for May 6, 1864, mentions a Cunningham from Ohio, most certainly the Oscar Cunningham from this diary page. "Last of the War Cases" was first published as "Army Hospitals and Cases. Memoranda At the Time, 1863–66" in Century Magazine (October 1881), and was later included in Complete Prose Works (1892).
