9 o'clock A. M. we
move.
The roads still desperate—corduroying
almost every step. A great many refugees are now following the army, seeking to
be freed from the Davis tyranny; they are enduring much suffering. We go into
camp tonight about sun down. We are now about twenty-six miles from Goldsboro,
North Carolina.
