Reports from Meade Pennsylvania describe soldiers forced into spread eagle positions and starved for disobedience, with three privates jailed for failing to report for roll call.

Nearby, Kansas City endures an early heavy snowstorm isolating sections and damaging lines, while reports from Minnesota indicate a largely ended Indian uprising after a council with hostile tribes. Postal rate reforms and international negotiations also appear in dispatches.
