April 9. — Day delightful, being a real summer, or rather spring, day. The President reviewed the First Corps to-day. Rode over to see Colonel Eustis in regard to Engineer officers. On my way back, I stopped for Whittier, and went over with him to see Furness on Stoneman’s staff. Had guard-mounting in the afternoon, which passed off quite successfully. The general rode over to Major Spaulding’s in the afternoon, with Lieutenant Van Brocklin.
