Moved out at 4 A. M., our brigade in advance. Reached
Corydon, 17 miles, before noon. Passed the barricade where the militia fought.
Made of logs and rails, very good. Made little resistance, afraid of cannon. 350
taken prisoners. Many home guards went on with us. All the men, women, girls
and children out to see us, water and grub. Did us all good to meet friends.
