Crossed Jellico Mountain. Quite steep and long. Cool and
very pleasant marching. Marched 10 miles over hilly road and camped for dinner.
Ate with Chamberlain. Homeliest girls — least intelligent looking I ever saw.
Went on to Chitwoods and camped. Cold night. Thought much of home and friends
this commencement day. At 5:35 P. M. crossed the Tenn. line. Gen. Burnside
passed us while at dinner.
