General Tuttle's
division left early this morning on their expedition, carrying eight days'
rations. General Logan's Division is also in the command, and there is a total
of about ten thousand men — infantry, artillery and cavalry. Our brigade moved
into the tents of the Third Brigade of Tuttle's Division, the Eleventh Iowa
occupying those of the Fifth Minnesota.
