Setting out from
Bald Hill early in the morning, our battalion soon caught up with the rear of
the wagon train.
The road, which was
already bad enough, was made still worse by its raining that day. Therefore the
train moved very slowly, and “bringing up the rear” was quite an unpleasant job
as well as a slow one. We camped for the night about where the head of the
columns had bivouacked the night previous, only six miles from Bald Hill.
