After breakfast, just as most of the Cos. had started to
graze, word came that rebels were crossing at Fisher's Creek in force and had
captured pickets. “Boots and Saddles” sounded and we were soon under way for the
ford. Issued rations first. Rebels gone. Followed trail some distance and rested
at the Brewery. Got back into camp before dark. Got some supper. Cleaned my
horse. Wrote a little and retired.
