On the third relief last night from 1 to 3 A. M. Visited by
the grand-rounds about 2 A. M. All was well. Relieved this morning. Weather
clear and fine. Saw one of our cavalry scouting parties pass along the pike,
having captured a rebel Major and twelve men up near Strasburg. Drilling and
dress parade kept up when the weather permits.
