Moved out at 3 A. M. 10 miles from Paris. Reached Paris in
time for breakfast at Mr. Dixon's, and little Lizzie Dixon attracted my attention, resembles, etc.
Morgan served the town as others. Moved towards Vernon. Morgan turned off to Dupont,
bridges and depot burned. Some Ohio people, Charlie McKane's mother. Very
hearty reception, bread, beef and pies. Went to Versailles and camped at 11 P.
M. in a meadow. Only 25 miles from Ohio line. Think Morgan will go to Ohio.
