The 10th Regiment was ordered
back to Buccanan, as it was on
its way to this place. They expect

yet I fear that the result will be
otherwise, if such little small forces undertake
to cope with large forces of the
enemy.
I wish you to be inform me

gave his crops, and how he disposed
of his horses, &c.
While writing I hear it reported
that the 13th Regt. will soon
return to Camp Dennison,
for the purpose of recruiting.
But I think the report is
false. Should it prove true,
I will apply for a furlough
