Went to see Walt. I
had a first-rate visit. He is about well. I did little but answer questions
about what has been going on since we parted at Camp Chalmette, who is living
and who have died and what sort of a place we are in. Found three letters for
me when I came back.
Later. Marching orders with two days' cooked
rations and 100 rounds of ammunition, blankets and overcoats. I am going, too,
unless Dr. Andrus stops me. Must stop and write a letter before taps.
