Weather still bad. After breakfast ordered to the river. No
chance for us today to cross. By orders of Col. Kautz, I went to the Div. train
and helped myself to one day's rations. Lt. crossed over. Robinson, Drake and I
got permission to swim our horses and cross. Saddled and went round by the river
road to avoid pickets. Glad to get back into a dry bed again.
