None being taken away to-day, I believe on account of not getting transportation. Notice that rebel troops are passing through on the railr...

A car load went at about noon, and are pretty well thinned out. Over half gone — no one believes to our lines now; all hands afraid of goin...

None as yet gone to-day and it is already most night. My turn would not come until to-morrow, and if none go at all today I will probably n...
