Ordered to move at
six A. M. I rode in the buggy; kept the horses near, in case I should want
them. We had advanced about three and a half miles, when we were saluted by some
shells from rebel batteries ahead. I immediately got on my horse Billy. I had
to be pretty careful to keep my balance, as I felt very shaky still.
