We move today.
Colonel Sickles and the reserve, except veteran volunteers, go home today. They
passed with slow sad music this morning. A bad time to go to the rear. Marched
to Bunger's Mill, ten and one-half miles from Meadow Bluff and five miles from
Lewisburg. Camped on left of Second Brigade in a pleasant glen.
