They might shell us if they had any long-range guns in position, but I imagine that they are hardly well enough off in good ammuni tion to be able to indulge in that kind of target-shooting. I wish that we had our guns. If the enemy, who is said to be in heavy force at Leesburg, should attempt to cross the river, and there should be a general engagement, there would be nothing for us but to retire to the rear with the camp followers. .... Major S. Has been absent from the company now for a week..., and during that time I have reigned supreme in our little encampment, and have communicated directly with Colonel Owen, the commander of the Brigade, as if I were colonel of a regiment. I am sorry that the state of my foot does not permit me to drill my company as dismounted cannoneers. I have been found lying on my bed most of the time studying. I got hold of Monday's Herald yesterday, and found in it a comparatively correct account of the conflict of Ball's Bluff, only it places the numbers engaged, and the loss, rather too high.
