one union man or at least he pretnded to be so, when we had all the grapes, quiches, pears, apples, peaches and those who wished, plenty of wine. Here we laid till noon, when the order to strike tents was given, and we proceeded about three miles farther south and again pitched our tents.

  On Saturday about 2 o'clock [illegible] [illegible] [illegible] [illegible] [illegible] and having done so we had to wait till our baggage could be removed.   The baggage wagons did not come till 8 o'clock when we moved our camp nearer Louisville about 3 or 4 miles.   We got our tents pitched and the men in bed about 11 o'clock but it being my turn to stand guard I had to [bunk?] only.     I came off guard this morning.   I would mention here that [illegible] [illegible] guard duty here than in Chicago.   And it is also much easier what there is of it.    Immediately after I was relieved from guard this morning the order was again given to strike tents, and we moved a few [illegible] nearer Louisville and are now encamped on splendid did camping grounds.
