Lu went back to the regt. Remained with the brigade all
night. Returned to train in time for breakfast. Moved train over to Cole's.
Went with Bob to barbershop. Sent Barber to his company yesterday. Ficklin has
taken his place and is doing splendidly. War news seems favorable. Reports that
the enemy are retreating down the valley, also that he has turned towards Washington,
former probably true. Lee cannot spare so many men. Cavalry force, 2nd Ohio a
part, sent out light on reconnoissance.
