Left town soon after breakfast. Two negro slaves were
snatched from the horses — oh how shameful! Am glad I did not witness the scene.
Afterwards several such incidents transpired. How shocking. Major Burnett
delivered up one on the word of two Ky. officers. Met the Third Batt. at Mount
Sterling. Very pretty country all the way. Letters from Fannie, Will and Fred.
Wrote to F. Chaplain at supper. Drake most sick.
