Got his wagon and
hauled one load to Camp. Camp moved three miles further up the pike. I went up
Creek and got Mr. Jonichin to start with his wagon. Went on top the mountain to
get two more wagons and as I came back the Yanks ran our pickets in. I came
near being caught by them. Came back down Creek and told J. He turned back. I
and Polk then went on to Camp. After going to bed, all waked up and fell back
to the other Camp.
