Diary of Private Ephraim Shelby Dodd, Wednesday, May 13, 1863

I met some of Morgan's men; Harper with them. I joined them and went cross railroad at Mitchellville over to Wickwire's, eight miles from railroad. Stopped at Mr. Simpson's and got breakfast. Miss Sue Offutt, Miss Jimmy Wickwire there. After breakfast went to the woods and staid all day.
