Grand Lake Landing, Friday, March 6. Cloudy and windy. General Quinby went down on the “Superior” to Providence, returned in the evening. In the afternoon David Evans and myself went down stream on the levee, bareback about three miles, where the engineers were at work digging out the levee. Took a drink in Louisiana and returned to camp with no better impression of the sunny South.
