Reveille at daylight and orders to march at 6 A. M. Rear
guard. Hastened breakfast and led out. Went down to the road to an orchard and
dismounted. Remained there till noon, idling, joking and eating apples. Read Independent.
How thankful I am that I can have something to read. Loitered along the road,
getting to London at 9 P. M. 3 miles. Camped in a poor, nasty place. Slept
well.
