day; “'e had not had rain for some
time. and every thing was dry and dus-
ty. .\t 1! u. m. we received ordcrs to
strike tente. pack up. and prcpnrc for a

our breakfast. At 4 a. m. we were MI.

June, lrt—Sundny morning—«Many of
the men could» scarcely walk from the
blisters on their feet. and some could not
put on their shocs. but at 9 n. m. theor-
der “Fall In“ came. and away we went.
Numbers of the men fell out. and had to
be picked up by the ambulances. “'9
crossed a part of the Bull Run battle
field. and saw the ctl‘ects of the battle—
guns. embers. kunpsncks, canteens. brok~
entgun carriages, dead horscsnnd mules
scattered in all directions, and the graves
of many of our brave comrades, or their
bodies, with a little earth thrown over
them. with a hand sticking out here and
a foot there. was a sight not: very cheep
ing to men foot~sore and tired, who had
not been long in the service. “‘9 went
into camp for the- night. about. 8 p. m.,
near Mauassas Junction, having made
twenty miles during tbeday.
June 15.—\\'c were up at 3 a. m., and
ordered to draw three days’ rations.
Moved forward and arrived at Center;

miles.
J uue 16.—Very hot and dry. There ap-
peared to be a good deal of hurrying
hither and thither among the command-
ing otfiocrs. and aids, but we did not
learn what was in the way of our mow
ing. At 12 m. I was detailed to go on,
picket. Went out on the Chantilly road
about two miles, posted our scutries
