In the morning early, Companies "A" and
"G" came in with Major Burnett and staff. At noon fifty men from each
of the four companies of Burnett's battalion left camp, marched twenty miles. Our
ride was through a rich country, over Gen. Siegel's first battle field. Many
pretty flowers. Passed a little deserted village. Encamped by a clear stream
and occupied some vacant houses. After supper made our bed out of doors and had
a good night's rest.
