Monday, March 3. — I rode into Washington with the general, and General Butterfield. I drew my pay for a month, amounting to $102.50. We stopped at McClellan’s headquarters, where I found that all the generals of division of the Army of the Potomac were assembled. I left the general, and came out here on a full gallop to test my horse’s powers of endurance, and I was well pleased with them. I paid Monteith $14.86 for my mess-bill, and my servant James $17.56 for wages up to March 1.
