Breakfasted in town about 5 A. M., at Mrs. Harper's, very
kind and hospitable people. Mrs. Derban's husband Q. M. in Grant's Army. Two
little girls sang “Down With the Traitor.” Passed through several German towns,
very patriotic. Passed through Lawrenceburgh. Reached the Whitewater at dusk. T.
and I stopped at a German's for supper and napped till 2 A. M. Rebels burned the
bridge, compelling us to ford the river.
