Came to Bell Buckle
this morning and from there to Wartrace, our infantry falling back to
Tullahoma. Went a short distance beyond Wartrace; 11th Texas and 4th Georgia
skirmished with them a little; a few wounded. We came to Duck River and camped.

Our work finished
and we return to Camp at Tullahoma. Regiment came in soon after. I got a letter
from Miss S. A. Jourdan. I went over to the Texas Brigade, saw Doc. Norwood,
George Holman, George Jourdan, Frank Wilkes and Billy Dunson. Came back and our
Regiment moved out on the right and camped. I went on a scout with Black to
Hillsboro; went within one mile and came back; no Yanks there. Traveled all day
or I should have said all night. Got back and found the Army on the retreat.
