Just before night Mrs. Robert Rakestraw and Miss Mary drove
up to spend the night with me. They had started down into Jasper County, hoping
to get back their buggy, having heard that several buggies were left at Mr.
Whitfield's by the Yankees.
Nothing new! It is confidently believed that Savannah has
been evacuated. I hear nothing from my boys. Poor fellows, how I miss them!
