In the morning took the prisoners to the fort and hurried
over to Col. Burris. Rode up to south part of town and found Cousin Austin's.
Stayed to dinner. Had a good visit. Made me promise to call in the evening if
we stayed in town. Went over in the evening. Lost my way. Found Mr. Buckingham of
the Bulletin there. Read some of his letters for Augusta for the Baptist
benefit. Augusta played on her guitar and sang, also on the piano. Enjoyed the evening
very much indeed. Leona a very pretty girl. Had a lunch and apples, good
feather bed. Had nice peach sauce.
