November 6, 1864.
Rain all day. We are preparing for a huge campaign, and are
all right glad of it; 50 days' rations is the word. Don't know when we start.
Montgomery or Augusta are probably the points. We are going to shake up the
bones of the rebellion. I would not miss this campaign for anything.
