Marched at seven
o'clock A. M. Arrived at Adamstown by eleven o'clock A. M. General Banks was at
Harper's Ferry already. Troops were passing by railroad, en route for Harper's
Ferry, all the time. Our battery went in park, for the rest of the day, close
to the railroad. General McClellan passed through in a special train. Rain all
night.
