10 o'clk Monday Huntley's train has been loaded and is ready to start, but I am astonished to find that it does not take all the property of "M" Co. Dr. Collins & Hospital occupy three [strike] two wagons. Lt. Harmon one, D& L. property one - and Huntley himself one - the other five wagons I have filled with "M."
