Col. blamed none but himself yesterday; said he had
misgivings immediately and thought fortunate that all were not taken. Moved
before midnight. Camped at 2 A. M. near a creek, "Muddy," called, I
believe. Five miles from Bull's Gap. In P. M. alarm, and 2nd and 7th took
positions and had some skirmishing. One man, Co. “A,” killed. Went back to camp
and 7th Ohio relieved us. Camped a mile farther on. Got forage and settled
down.
