Tuesday, 14th.—Brigade started at daylight. No one allowed to go in wagons to-day. J. B. Elrod and myself left behind, not able to march, he having a very bad leg and I given out in my hips. We made an agreement that we would not leave each other, and would move on as best we could.
Dark found us at Cooper’s Wells, only four miles from Raymond. Heavy cannonading towards Jackson.
