nine o'clock
Morning comes ; we have no water ; the men eat their rations dry . At sunrise the march is again begun , through fields and woods and down country roads ; we go southeast . The Yankees have gone . At nine o'clock we halt ; a field . Company C , the right of the regiment ; is thrown forward as skirmishers . Again we march ; again we halt , the brigade in line of battle . An orderly comes to Captain Haskell . ''
