Came out on a
reconnoitering expedition, past Col. Lytle's. I stopped on return and saw
Misses Mollie and Alice. Miss Molly T. had returned home. From this time until
the 27th we did nothing but picketing. I piruted a little on Duck River, spent
a night or two with Mr. Stewart, took dinner twice at Mr. Wilhoit's and thus
the time passed. On 27th came in to Camp and on 29th we were relieved by
Wheeler's Brigade and with three days' rations started on a scout down on
Cumberland, passed through S. and out on Eaglesville pike to E. Camped near the
place.
