Wednesday, 6th—Left Carr’s and came up to John Mitchell’s. Came out to Stinson’s on to Giles Harris. From there to Scottsville and Gallatin. Crossed at Coatstown, went on to John Rippy’s, got supper and fed horses. Went on in rain to the Webb’s, Maze’s uncle, found the Yanks so close by that we turned and went back to the hills.
