Arrived at
Martinsburg at 2 A. M. Left Jersey City early yesterday morning. After an
uneventful trip arrived in Baltimore at 4 P. M. Left at nine o'clock. Met other
members of the regiment bound for camp. When we got there lay down for a little
rest and sleep. At daylight attended roll-call, after which I was given a
hearty welcome by the boys of Company C. Thankful for the furlough and the good
time. Connecticut did look good to me as I again turned my back to it, facing
southward, bound for old Virginia. Again writing letters home after my safe
arrival in camp.
