By orders Company E boarded the cars this morning for
Lookout Station farther on, about twelve miles from California. I bade my
bunk-mate, James Fossett, goodby [sic] at the hospital, where he is confined
with inflammatory rheumatism. His suffering is something intense, and he is
unable to turn himself in bed, but I left him in the hands of a good nurse.
